Policy & people need to come together: Asha Negi on Uttarkashi cloudburst
Following the Uttarkashi cloudburst, Dehradun-native Asha Negi emphasises the need for local awareness and preparedness in vulnerable Himalayan regions. As Uttarkashi grapples with the aftermath of a devastating cloudburst, Asha Negi , who was born and brought up in Dehradun, says, 'While climate change is a global challenge, I believe local awareness and preparedness, especially in vulnerable regions like the hills, can make a huge difference. We need both policy and people to come together.' The actress is now based in Mumbai, but her family still lives in the mountains. She says, 'My family is in Dehradun, and none of the people I know live around this particular area where the cloudburst happened. But my heart goes out to those who have suffered. I do get worried for my family at such times.' She adds, 'The way Dehradun has become so populated and polluted in the past two decades is genuinely worrisome. What was once known for its clean air, green cover and peaceful pace is now struggling with traffic, construction and rising temperatures. This rapid urbanisation is putting a huge strain on natural resources and increasing the region's vulnerability to disasters like flash floods and cloudbursts.'

Criminal Justice actor Asha Negi: 'I was typecast then, I might be getting typecast again'
Ahead of the release of Criminal Justice: A Family Matter—currently streaming on JioHotstar—actor Asha Negi spoke exclusively to OTTplay about evolving as an artist, the conscious shift from television to web platforms, and the challenges of typecasting. Stream Asha Negi's performances in Pavitra Rishta, Baarish, and Abhay now streaming on OTTplay Premium. Reflecting on how her choices as an actor have evolved, Asha said, "That is actually a very interesting question, because I feel when I look back at my journey, how lost and naive I used to be, even like picking my (roles). But even if you're young, you just want to do work. You want to be famous, and you love the whole glamour part of it. But I think with time, as you were, as an actor, as a person, you want to do more meaningful work." The actor added that her current decisions are more rooted in the desire to be creatively fulfilled and pushed out of her comfort zone. "So lately, I've been choosing the kind of work that is meaningful, that challenges me, that maybe sometimes gives me sleepless nights, and that charges me up. I see when I'm really, really passionate about something; after this entire journey, the entire process of doing Criminal Justice was so, so satisfactory." Describing the personal satisfaction she drew from the show, she recalled, "So many times when I would come back home and call my friends and tell them about it, I could see my eyes twinkling or charged up. The kind of project and the kind of characters that make me feel that feeling are how I've been selected for my work lately." When asked about shifting from daily soaps to web series, Asha revealed the unlearning process wasn't immediate. "So when I consciously quit television, I remember going to a lot of workshops; that is where I started unlearning. I remember I wasn't even aware that I was unlearning a lot of stuff." She added, "In fact, people would tell me who have seen me long back during television days, and then that you've done a lot of unlearning, and that is the most difficult part, which it is; unlearning is actually more difficult than learning. But the good part is that I wasn't aware that I was unlearning it." According to her, even now, it's an ongoing process. "Even now, I would be unlearning a lot of things that I learnt back then. Where it's only when you see the progress later that you realise, 'Okay, that has happened.'" Asha also opened up about facing typecasting at various stages of her career. "When I had initially started working, when I was new, people typecast me then, but I think that's how it is. That's how it works in industry, and I don't blame them for it being easy to see somebody's work in a box." She noted how rarely people are willing to take casting risks. "In fact, today only, I'm talking to a friend who was a director, and he's like, 'It is a very risky job to anti-cast somebody, to cast somebody in a role where people would be, 'What? It is so risky.' But if it's actually done well, it would create something really beautiful." Recognising a recurring pattern in her career, she concluded, "So I was typecast earlier, and I think I'm again getting typecast now that you've asked me this question, and when I'm realising that again, it has started happening but now I feel I will have to take risks idhar-udhar." Criminal Justice: A Family Matter is now streaming on JioHotstar.
