The Drustibottu serial has been making a lot of noise since its recent launch. The police officer's acting in the serial has been highly appreciated. So who is this police officer?

The Drustibottu serial, starring Vijay Suriya and Arpita Mohita, has been successful in winning over viewers with its unique storyline. Vijay Suriya plays the role of Rowdy Dattabhay and Arpita plays the role of Drushti. The story revolves around the challenges faced by fair-skinned girls in society. Another important character in this serial is that of a police officer.

Drushti, who is as beautiful as an ivory doll, is raised by her mother by applying black paint all over her face and body since childhood. The reason being, in the slum-like area where they live, a beautiful girl can easily attract unwanted attention. Hence, her mother hid Drushti's beauty from the eyes of society.
