Deesha Katkar is a rising star on Instagram, known for her creative and humorous reels. In an exclusive interview, Deesha shares how she stumbled into content creation during the 2020 lockdown and gained attention with her relatable, 30-seconds reels.

Deesha’s latest reels, particularly the character “Praju,” have gone viral on social media, gaining her 2.8 million views. Praju is inspired by a girl from her native Satara and is an example of Ghati dialect, which Deesha is fond of.

Deesha’s background is quite diverse, as she started with a diploma in civil engineering but soon realized her passion was for the arts. She participated in college plays and beauty pageants and eventually found her true love for theatre. She did theatre for at least 5-6 years and is still associated with a few groups. While making content was never her plan, she started creating some during the 2020 lockdown, and to her surprise, it got attention from social media users.

Deesha’s Instagram reels are a mix of observational and relatable comedy, and she prides herself on standing out from other content creators. She believes social media is important for up-and-coming artists to showcase their work, but warns against buying fake likes and followers, which she compares to half-air and half-chips. Instead, Deesha advises focusing on unique ideas and being consistent to gain attention.

Deesha finds inspiration from observing people and writing down her ideas for scripts. While her reels often feature catchy music, she doesn’t always follow trends, and chooses songs she personally enjoys, especially old Marathi and Hindi music.

When our reporter asked Deesha about her upcoming projects that she’s working on, she said “I recently worked in a film called “Shyam Chi Aai” directed by Sujay Dahake. The release date is not final yet but it will release soon! I am very excited for this one! And I have also written a webseries called “ Ek prem kahani mein” directed by “Tanaya Pande” which is ready and about to get released anytime soon on a youtube channel named “This is hit”. Deesha also said “Auditions are going on well! Im currently working on myself and my performances so I get good projects in future!”

In the face of criticism, Deesha chooses to ignore negative comments and stay motivated by being true to herself and focusing on the positive responses she receives. She credits her theater background for teaching her how to stay present in the moment and develop her characterisation skills.

Deesha’s unique blend of humor, creativity, and acting skills have gained her a growing following on Instagram. She plans to continue making content that showcases her performance and different characters, and encourages other artists and performers to embrace social media as a way to showcase their work.
