Mumbai, June 27 Actress Adah Sharma is all set to play a "badass, witty" titular character in the upcoming show titled 'Rapchick Reeta'.

A source close to the development shared, "Many actresses were considered, but the team unanimously zeroed in on Adah. She has excellent comic timing and a huge youth fan following. She is also very versatile, so she's perfect for the part of Reeta. Reeta is badass, witty, kind, and a lot of fun. After 'Sunflower', 'The Kerala Story', and 'Bastar: The Naxal Story', she has proved that she is one of the best among the young actresses."

When contacted, Adah was tight-lipped and said: "Yes, I'm doing something exciting, but the team will make an announcement soon."

The show will air on Disney+ Hotstar.

The actress made her acting debut as the lead in the 2009 Hindi horror film '1920' opposite Rajniesh Duggal, directed by Vikram Bhatt. In 2011, she featured in another horror film titled 'Phhir'.

Adah has been a part of films like 'Hasee Toh Phasee', 'Commando 2', and 'Commando 3'.

The actress has also starred in South Indian films, including the Telugu movies 'Heart Attack', 'S/O Satyamurthy', 'Kshanam', 'Subramanyam for Sale', 'Kalki', and 'Question Mark'.

Adah has also appeared in the Kannada movie 'Rana Vikrama', Tamil films like 'Idhu Namma Aalu' and 'Charlie Chaplin 2', and had a special appearance in the song 'Maaman Waiting' from the movie 'Idhu Namma Aalu'.

The diva has also been part of web series like 'Pukaar', 'The Holiday', 'Aisa Waisa Pyaar', and 'Meet Cute'.
