Ashi Singh to break gender stereotypes with her role in and as Zee TV’s Meet

Zee TV’s next primetime drama Meet features the journey of a spirited young girl from Haryana by the same name.

Meet, who contrary to a popular perception that only a son can be a ghar ka chiraag, is the ghar ‘ki’ chirag for her family. Not only is she the sole breadwinner, but also breaks societal rule books of gender roles by serving as a delivery agent and generally being the ‘fixer’ in any and every situation. Popular television actress Ashi Singh will play the title role of Meet.

Talking about her character and the show, Ashi said, “I feel Meet is a very unique show that brings forth a very pertinent subject for society to think about. It is high time we looked past gender stereotypes and let people be their authentic selves. It shouldn’t matter if a person fulfilling a certain responsibility is a man or a woman. In the show, a daughter is taking the responsibility of the family just like a male member.”
