While the entire cast of the show is promising, we’re excited for Lhakyila’s debut on Indian screens. A popular social media influencer from Nepal, Tenzin Lhakyila has 240k followers on Instagram and 146k subscribers on YouTube. Having started her vlogs at the young age of 13, this Tibetan girl is especially known for her high-on-wit and humor content.
