Bhojpuri cinema is clearly changing gears, and actress Anjana Singh is right at the centre of this shift. Known for her glamorous screen presence, Anjana has now surprised audiences by stepping into a raw, action-heavy role in her upcoming film ‘Kushti’. With the trailer out, she is being widely hailed as Bhojpuri cinema’s new “Dangal Girl”.
Bhojpuri films move beyond stereotypes
For years, Bhojpuri cinema has faced criticism for repetitive themes and over-the-top glamour. But recent films show a visible shift toward stronger storytelling and performance-driven roles. ‘Kushti’ fits perfectly into this new wave, placing a female character—not a male superstar—at the heart of the narrative.

Anjana Singh’s most challenging role yet
In ‘Kushti’, Anjana Singh plays a wrestler who dreams big from a young age and is determined to make her mark in the ring. Despite family pressure and marriage, her character refuses to give up on her passion.
The trailer showcases Anjana in an intense new avatar—training hard, fighting opponents, and standing her ground with confidence. It’s a far cry from her earlier roles and arguably the boldest performance of her career so far.
Raw action, real emotion
While Anjana has done action scenes before, ‘Kushti’ presents her in a completely different light. From wrestling moves to emotional breakdowns, the trailer balances physical strength with inner conflict. Watching her dominate the ring is a refreshing experience for Bhojpuri audiences, who are not used to seeing female-led action films at this scale.
Daughter Aditi Singh plays her younger self
One of the most talked-about moments in the trailer is the appearance of Anjana Singh’s real-life daughter, Aditi Singh, who plays the childhood version of her character. Aditi’s performance adds emotional depth to the story and strengthens the film’s narrative arc. The mother-daughter connection on screen feels natural and heartfelt.
Strong supporting cast and music
Apart from Anjana Singh, the film features Jay Yadav, Dev Singh, Sushil Singh, Manoj Tiger, and Prakash Jais in key roles. Each character appears well-etched in the trailer.
Music for the film is composed by Sajan Mishra, with lyrics by Rajesh Pandey. Singers Kishan Chandravanshi, Sugam Singh, and Kajal Raj have lent their voices to the soundtrack, which complements the film’s intense tone.

Why ‘Kushti’ matters for Bhojpuri cinema
‘Kushti’ is more than just an action film. It reflects a growing confidence in Bhojpuri cinema to experiment with content and give women-led stories the spotlight. Anjana Singh’s transformation into a fierce wrestler challenges long-held norms and proves that strong female characters can drive commercial cinema too.
If the trailer is anything to go by, Anjana Singh has not just raised the bar for herself but also delivered a statement performance that could redefine action roles in Bhojpuri films.
