Biba as a character is aspirational, says Dolly Singh about Feels Like Home character

Content creator Dolly Singh, who has previously appeared in the Netflix series Bhaag Beanie Bhaag (2020) and the Amazon Prime Video anthology Modern Love Mumbai (2022), will be seen next in Lionsgate Play’s third original series, Feels Like Home (2022).

Singh plays Biba, a strong, independent Delhi girl who is protective of her younger brother, Lakshay (Preet Kammani). Primarily a series about four young men living on their own for the first time, Biba’s character also adds importance to a key aspect of her storyline.

In the series, Biba makes one of the biggest decisions of her life by marrying her long-time partner, thus proving that love has no gender and that every human being has the right to choose who to marry.

Discussing her character, Singh said, “Biba as a character is aspirational, and I relate to her at some level. Though I am not as outgoing or as bindaas as she is, hopefully, I will be there soon. I think Feels Like Home is a special story as it will connect to the audience because of its rawness and relatability.”

She continued, “[The show] will take you back to your days of struggles while you were moving cities, having a hard time with your relationships and how you made a house your home eventually. [It] brings to light an ensemble of characters that will leave an impact on you, and their success or failure in the show will be personal to you.”

While talking about her experience, Singh said, “I think I have had one of my best times shooting with the cast and crew of Feels Like Home, especially working with fellow content creator Vishnu Kaushal. Everyone was so kind and humble, and the set actually made me feel at home. I am super excited as I was donning a wedding look on a web show for the very first time and I think I had one of the best clothes and make-up. The experience of shooting with Preet, Anshuman and Mihir has been inexplicable as they are such brilliant actors, and the amount of hard work they have put into the show is just commendable.”

She added, “Though I am from Nainital, I have lived in Delhi for more than 10 years, and I keep travelling to different places for my work. So with all honestly, to me, food and my pet make me feel at home.

Feels Like Home also stars Kaushal, Mihir Ahuja, Anshuman Malhotra, Himika Bose and Inayat Sood and is due to be premiered on Lionsgate Play on 10 June.
