Friendship Day is a celebration of the bonds that anchor us, bringing warmth, laughter, and a sense of belonging to our lives. As people across the country gear up to honour their closest confidants, actress Debchandrima Singha Roy—who is all set to play the lead role of Soumya in Star Plus’ highly anticipated upcoming show Yeh Fitoor Tera—shares her heartfelt thoughts on what friendship truly means to her, both on and off screen.
Debchandrima reflects on her personal approach to relationships, noting that quality always triumphs over quantity when it comes to true friends. “I’ve always had, and still have, a very small circle of friends. But the friends I have are extremely genuine and special to me,” says Debchandrima.
Drawing parallels between her real life and her character, Soumya, in Yeh Fitoor Tera, the actress highlights how the show’s narrative beautifully captures the emotion of making new connections during life’s transitional phases. “In Yeh Fitoor Tera, Soumya is a shy girl who steps into a co-ed college for the very first time. One of the most beautiful parts of her journey is slowly making new friends and finding people who make her feel like she belongs,” she explains. “I think we’ve all experienced that mix of excitement and nervousness when we enter a completely new phase of life, wondering if we’ll fit in or find our people. In many ways, I could relate to those emotions too.”
The onset experience for Yeh Fitoor Tera has been equally rewarding for Deb, giving her the chance to create meaningful bonds with her co-stars behind the camera. “While shooting for my new show, I’ve made many friends on set. A lot of us are around the same age, so our conversations, experiences, and topics of discussion are often quite similar, which makes it easy to connect,” Debchandrima adds. “I’m grateful that Yeh Fitoor Tera has given me not just wonderful memories, but also friendships that I’ll always cherish.”
With Yeh Fitoor Tera preparing to premiere on Star Plus, fans are eagerly waiting to see Debchandrima bring Soumya’s relatable journey of self-discovery and friendship to life on screen.
