I am exploring, taking on challenges: Parsa Evana
With her infectious smile and effortless charm, Parsa Evana has been quietly, yet confidently carving out a space for herself in the OTT landscape. After making her Chorki debut last year with “Dimlight”, the actress is now set to appear on Hoichoi this Eid with the one-hour film, “Ekshathe Alada”.
With back-to-back projects under her belt and more in the pipeline, The Daily Star caught up with Parsa to talk about her journey so far, her creative choices, and what lies ahead.
“I have always wanted, as an artiste, to work on strong platforms and be part of big-canvas projects. I am drawn to better productions and higher-quality work. OTT projects, in particular, are very well organised, and that makes the whole process truly exciting,” said the actress.

Parsa has also been drawing attention for her fresh on-screen pairings. She was recently seen opposite Mosharraf Karim in “Dimlight” and will next be paired with Yash Rohan in “Ekshathe Alada”.
Speaking about audience acceptance of new pairings and how an artiste should approach them, she shared, “An artiste should work with everyone. Roles should be portrayed in a way that feels believable. Pairing is actually a crucial thing, and chemistry does not click equally with everyone. But that does not mean an actor should limit themselves to working with only one or two people. That would be a weakness. Actors should explore, take on challenges, and push their boundaries—and that is exactly what I am doing.”
Reflecting on her experience of working with Mosharraf Karim, Parsa had nothing but praise. “Mosharraf bhai is like an institution. Working with him is always a great experience. The audience has really liked Nayra, and I have received very positive feedback,” she added.
Speaking about her character in the project, the actress said, “In ‘Ekshathe Alada’, I am playing the role of a wife—someone who is married, yet very independent. It is a very urban story, and I have not played this kind of character before. Yash is a good co-actor, and it was a great experience working with him.”
When asked about her upcoming projects for Valentine’s Day and Eid, Parsa said, “I am actually prioritising the story. There may be a project coming this Valentine’s Day. Besides that, ‘Ekshathe Alada’ is set to release this Eid. I haven’t taken on any new projects yet. I choose my work based on the script, the director, and the strength of the story, giving more importance to quality. Hopefully, something good will come out of it. Please keep me in your prayers.”
