Aditi Sharma , who has been captivating audiences with her portrayal in Apollena , recently shared her thoughts on how the show mirrors her personal beliefs. Speaking about her character's journey, she said, "In the show, my grandmother constantly reminds me about marriage, but I believe becoming independent should be a priority.

Drawing parallels between her character and real life, Aditi added, "I can relate to this so much. Just like my character, I’ve seen how women are often burdened by societal expectations, especially when it comes to marriage. But having someone who believes in you, like my character’s father in the show, can make all the difference.
It’s a reminder that we need more people to support women’s aspirations." Elaborating on the impact of the role, she shared, "Playing this character has reinforced my belief that independence is key. The way my character navigates family pressures and stays true to her dreams is something I truly admire.
It’s not easy to fight against norms, but it’s so important to prioritize your goals before anything else, including marriage." Aditi also emphasized the empowering message of Apollena, saying, "The show is about more than space exploration—it’s about defying expectations and standing up for what you believe in. My character’s father’s quiet but unwavering support symbolizes how crucial it is for families to encourage women to dream big .
It’s not about rejecting marriage but understanding that it’s a choice, not a compulsion." With Apollena, Aditi Sharma not only portrays a powerful story on-screen but also ignites conversations about the importance of independence and self-reliance.
