Actress Karuna Pandey is celebrating a major milestone—three successful years of playing the beloved character Pushpa in the hit show Pushpa Impossible. In an exclusive conversation with Times of India TV, Karuna opened up about her incredible journey, the evolution of her character, and the personal growth she’s experienced along the way.
“It’s been an incredible journey,” Karuna shared. “Pushpa started as a woman trying to find her husband, but in the process, she found herself—starting a business, going back to school, and now studying law. Her evolution has been inspiring, and I feel proud and grateful to live her story. Shows like this are rare, and I truly feel blessed.”
Playing such a layered and grounded character has significantly impacted Karuna’s own outlook on life. “She’s strong, flawed, and real—like many women we know,” she said. “Her resilience, innocence, and ability to grow from mistakes have taught me so much. I connected with her from day one, but I’ve grown with her every step of the way.”
Despite television’s famously demanding schedules, Karuna remains passionate about her craft. “Acting doesn’t feel like a task to me—it’s something I live and breathe,” she explained. “I crave personal time like anyone else, but my love for storytelling keeps me going. I’m emotionally invested in every story I tell.”
