MUMBAI :  Yesha Rughani is an actress known for her recent portrayal of the character Gungun in the Star plus show Kabhi Kabhi Ittefaq Sey where she was paired opposite Manan Joshi. The show is off-air now but the character was loved by the audience a lot.

Yesha was born in Rajkot, Gujarat. She did not aspire to become an actor. She always wanted to pursue fashion designing. She came to Mumbai after completing her graduation in fashion designing. In Mumbai, she worked at Tata Cliq for a year.

The transition from working as a stylist to an actress was quite unplanned. She had her own brand of home décor which she used to exhibit at the little flea market. Once, she was busy at this exhibit when this unwell lady came up to her and she offered to help her. She told her that she would take her to her daughter or any of her family members. After that Yesha got in touch with the lady’s daughter who happened to be the producer of Yesha’s first show.
