Who is Urvi Singh?

Born on September 2nd, 2002, Urvi Singh moved to Mumbai from her hometown, Lucknow, after completing her eighth standard. She began her acting career in 2019 and rose to overnight fame by playing the character of Meenal Parekh, which first aired on April 16, 2019. The same year, Singh also made her television debut with a brief role in Zee TV’s Hamari Bahu Silk.

A B.Com. graduate, Urvi later starred in several series, including Firsts, The Great Indian Wedding, and Butterflies, among others. She also played some key roles in big-screen projects. She helmed the character of Young Shabri in Om Raut’s Adipurush alongside starring in films like Chill Bro and Mr King.


After Kota Factory, Urvi Singh’s most appreciated work is in the Amazon Mini TV series Crushed, which has so far premiered in four seasons and stars her as Jasmine.

In a 2022 interview with Hindustan Times, the 22-year-old shared that she put on braces during her initial phase of auditions to correct her teeth as they were hindering the opportunities coming her way. However, it was the same look that got her the character of Meenal Parekh in Kota Factory.

“During Kota... auditions, they were looking for a simple and studious girl. My braces and zero-power specs that I had bought style marne ke liye, perfectly suited my character, and I bagged the role of Meenal that gave me an identity in the industry,” Urvi had admitted back then.

She further revealed that, due to being a part of a season-based show, people know her by her character’s name, but getting offered similar kinds of student roles is a bit of a disadvantage.
