The Instagram bio of Medha Shankr – the breakout actress of the sleeper hit 12th Fail — says, ‘Authenticity is power’, and she surely radiates that. Before being cast in Vidhu Vinod Chopra’s film, Medha was a part of Gurinder Chadha’s British TV series Beecham House. She also did smaller roles in the film Shaadisthan and the series Dil Bekaraar.
Not many know that the Noida girl is also a trained classical singer and holds a master’s degree from NIFT, Delhi. In 12th Fail, which is streaming on Disney+Hotstar, Medha shone as a simple girl-next-door. We pored over her Instagram feed to catch Medha in her many moods.
For a game of foosball, Medha nailed the casual chic look in a white coordinated top and pants, and a short denim jacket. The cap, shades, hoops and crossbody bag complete the holiday vibe.

We love this mischievous smile on her no-makeup face. Also, her full-sleeve, high-neck zipper crop top.

Is she posing or blushing? Whatever it may be, the soft curls caressing her face made for a picture-perfect moment.
Medha definitely loves her hoops and this golden pair jazzes up her black coordinated outfit.
