Having become a household name thanks to her massive fanbase, Anushka Sen is no stranger to the world of showbiz. However, when in February 2022, she announced her plan to enter the world of Hallyu content, the stakes were raised even further.

Acts like Pakorn Chatborirak from Thailand, Daiyan Trisha and Sean Lee from Malaysia, and more names were said to have been joining the project. The Indian actress has been to South Korea twice so far, speaking about her different experiences in an exclusive chat with Pinkvilla.
