Currently, Sanya Malhotra is receiving numerous accolades for her performance in the recently-unveiled drama film, Mrs. She skillfully plays the role of a newly married Indian housewife who adheres to the rules dictated by the household’s patriarch (portrayed by Kanwaljit Singh). The character of Singh serves to underscore societal issues, and his acting has also garnered much praise.

He is frequently seen criticizing the attempts made by his newlywed daughter-in-law, finding faults with everything she does.
