As Engineering Girls turns six, actress Barkha Singh reflects on the impact it had on its audience, especially through the memorable portrayal of Sabu by Barkha Singh. “A lot of people I meet still ask me when the third season of Engineering Girls will come out,” Barkha reminisces. “In fact, Engineering Girls gave me the opportunity to play a character Sabu, which is very different from any other character I had played before that or any other character I have even played after that. People enjoyed seeing me in that avatar. It was a lot of fun. Even though people have seen me in a lot more films and show after Engineering Girls, they will still ask me ‘Sabu Kaisi Ho’ or if I attend a college event I hear how Sabu was the best.”She further added, “The show was way ahead of its time. In fact just the name Engineering Girls solicits humor and even within the show, we joke about how women are in the minority in engineering colleges. But it was also so much more.”As Barkha continues to shine in various roles across films and web series, her role as Sabu in Engineering Girls remains a highlight of her career. The show’s blend of humor, realism, and heartfelt storytelling continues to captivate new viewers and hold a special place in the hearts of long-time fans. On the work front, she has several upcoming projects lined up for this year.
