Dabba Cartel

Known for choosing unconventional roles, Shalini Pandey continues to push boundaries with Dabba Cartel!

The trailer for Dabba Cartel is finally here, and #ShaliniPandey stuns with her striking transformation. Starring alongside #ShabanaAzmi and #Jyotika, she takes on a gripping role in this crime thriller, blending intensity with emotional depth.

Speaking about her character in the show, Shalini said, “I’m playing the character of Raaji. She seems like a sweet, simple, and homely girl, which she is but then she goes through turmoil, loses her resistence, and not what depth she has and I as a character discovered her depth while doing this character and it was a great experience for me. And how Raaji flips completely, you will see how she changes. It was a discovery for Shalini and while playing Raaji for me, so yes it was very interesting playing the character.”

The actress also shared her working experience with veterans like #ShabanaAzmi and Jyotika and said, “My mom and dad love Shabana Azmi and I have heard about her from them. I have seen her films and am a huge fan of Shabana Ji and to be part of a cast like this is a privilege. We had a lot of fun shooting for it. Gajaraj Rao especially, though we don’t have scenes together, I admire her work, to work with Jyotika and all other women is quite fun so yes this a complete women-leading show.”

Shalini, known for choosing unconventional roles, continues to push boundaries with Dabba Cartel. From Arjun Reddy to Maharaj, she has proven her versatility, and this show promises another standout performance.
