This month, Diva Planet Magazine is thrilled to feature the dazzling Power Star Sheena Chohan on our cover. An actress of remarkable talent and versatility, Sheena has captivated audiences worldwide with her powerful performances and stunning screen presence. Sheena Chohan has recently made waves in the international film circuit, earning three Best Actress awards for her performance in the film Amar Prem. Launched in the prestigious main pavilion at Cannes, the most important film festival globally, Amar Prem has been receiving critical acclaim, and Sheena’s portrayal of a complex character has been a highlight.

Sheena said: “To understand and fit into this interesting character, I had to do a lot of research into women who had suffered what my character suffers in this story. It’s a big plot twist, so I can’t give it away, but I had to find and sit with various women who had gone through what my character goes through, which was emotionally tough – but I had to confront it so I could understand that low emotional range and truly be a blank page for my director. So now, winning three Best Actress Awards in one week, and feeling such joy, really brings my journey on this film full circle.”

With Amar Prem currently succeeding on the international film festival circuit, here’s a look at Sheena Chohan’s other releases this year, including her Bollywood Debut with Sant Tukaram:
