Naina Sareen is earning praise for showcasing two strikingly different performances in her recent projects. In
Raakh, directed by Prosit Roy, she plays Deena, a Parsi woman grappling with the aftermath of a traumatic incident. Starring Ali Fazal and Sonali Bendre, the crime drama has drawn attention for its intense storytelling, with Naina's restrained performance receiving appreciation.
In contrast, Naina is seen as Sherlyn, a young cyber crime officer opposite Arshad Warsi in
Pritam and Pedro , backed by Rajkumar Hirani . Calling the experience of working with Hirani and the team "an unforgettable masterclass," the FTII graduate said she values authenticity over popularity and hopes to continue taking on roles that challenge her as an actor.
Known for projects such as Tribhuvan Mishra CA Topper
, Made in Heaven and
Trial by Fire, Naina continues to build a diverse body of work with performances spanning intense dramas and lighter narratives.
