Rasika Dugal on The Empire: Recorded from studios in different time zones

Rasika Dugal

The past year was witness to Rasika Dugal’s wide range as an actor — where she played the manipulative Beena in Mirzapur 2, she also brought on a laugh a minute in Lootcase. In 2021, she continues her streak of trying her hand at new roles. The actor has joined the voice cast of The Empire, an international comedy audio series written by Anuvab Pal and directed by Ed Morrish.

The Channel X production for BBC Radio 2 is set in Imperial India where the new district magistrate of Darjeeling grapples with the responsibilities of his new post. How he shoulders the job with the help and hindrance of his colleagues forms the crux. Dugal plays Sapna, a bright woman who stands up to the new British magistrate. “Anuvab’s script had me in splits when I read it. I had come off a three-month shoot of an intense drama, and comedy was just what I needed,” says Dugal, who is joined by esteemed British actor Stephen Fry, Alexander Owen and Michelle Gomez. She is honoured to be collaborating with such international bigwigs. “All of us logged on to a Zoom call and recorded from studios in different parts of the world and different time zones. It was a delight to witness so much talent and listen to such beautiful voices.”
