Medha Shankr is both an actor and singer, trained in Hindustani classical music. Her early work included the British period drama Beecham House, followed by projects such as Shaadisthan and Dil Bekaraar. She also appeared in Max, Min and Meowzaki, which premiered at the Busan International Film Festival.
Her breakthrough came in 2023 with 12th Fail, where she starred opposite Vikrant Massey. Her portrayal of Shraddha Joshi, a supportive figure in IPS officer Manoj Kumar Sharma’s journey, earned her widespread recognition and firmly established her in Bollywood.
Since then, Medha has chosen diverse roles, including a part in the 2026 romantic comedy Ginny Weds Sunny 2. She has spoken openly about her fondness for romance as a genre, continuing to expand her repertoire beyond her breakout role.
Speculation about Medha and Samay Raina has circulated for months. The two have appeared together publicly, and their interactions have fueled online discussions. Medha also featured in the second season of India’s Got Latent, where Samay described her as his closest friend among the panelists, further intensifying rumours.
Earlier this year, a blurred photograph allegedly showing them together in Interlaken, Switzerland circulated online, though it did not conclusively establish their identities. The latest wedding rumour originated from a Reddit post, which was later deleted.
While her reported association with Samay Raina may be trending, Medha’s career trajectory continues independently. From international projects to mainstream Bollywood success, she has steadily built her identity as a versatile performer.
For now, there is no confirmed evidence of a wedding or engagement. The December marriage claim remains a social media rumour, with both Medha and Samay keeping their personal lives private.
