Career

Gagroo’s on-screen career began with television. Her debut came in the serial Dhoom Machaao Dhoom (2007), where she played a lively young character. She followed that with small screen and film appearances, including the Disney Channel’s film The Cheetah Girls: One World (2008) and the feature Aamras: The Sweet Taste of Friendship (2009). After a temporary break from acting and a return to Delhi, she decided to come back to Mumbai and pursue acting seriously.

Her screen visibility increased with cameos and supporting parts in films such as No One Killed Jessica (2011) and the blockbuster PK (2014), in which she played a colleague of Anushka Sharma’s character.

Gagroo’s profile rose significantly through her involvement with digital platforms. She featured in sketches and videos for YouTube channels including BeingIndian and Girliyapa, the latter bringing attention for its topical spoof work. Her breakthrough on long-form digital drama arrived with TVF Pitchers (2015) and TVF Tripling (2016), roles that brought her wider recognition and several awards for her work in web series.
