Singer Shibani Kashyap is set to make her acting debut with fiction TV show "Ek Veer Ki Ardaas...Veera". She will be seen as a mentor and says the character is close to her real life.

Shibani's character in the show will be called Megha, a famous singer who was boycotted from the industry due to her starry tantrums.

When she meets the character Ranvijay, she realises his potential and agrees to mentor him. So, she takes it up as a personal challenge to make him popular, and also to make a comeback in the industry herself.


Excited about the role, Shibani said in a statement: "The character is very reflective of me and how I am in real life. I am really excited to be making my fiction debut with '...Veera' as the character comes easy to me and I am exploring it through the show.`

The track is expected to go on air next week onwards.

The show airs on Star Plus.
