## Early life
Singh grew up in Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh, largely raised by her [grandparents](https://www.edgepedia.org/grandparent), and has said that her ambition to act dates to childhood, when she recreated film scenes with a doll after watching movies[3](https://www.zee5.com/zee5news/eisha-singh-biography/) • [2](https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/tv/news/hindi/eisha-singh-recalls-bagging-her-first-role-in-ishq-ka-rang-safed-says-my-dad-didnt-want-me-to-play-a-widow-at-16/articleshow/131320611.cms). She did theater in Bhopal and auditioned for advertisements and small roles without success before her breakthrough[2](https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/tv/news/hindi/eisha-singh-recalls-bagging-her-first-role-in-ishq-ka-rang-safed-says-my-dad-didnt-want-me-to-play-a-widow-at-16/articleshow/131320611.cms). She completed her schooling at Shree Bhavan's Bharti Public School in Bhopal and pursued a [Bachelor of Commerce](https://www.edgepedia.org/bachelor-of-commerce) degree[1](https://www.indianfilmhistory.com/actor/eisha-singh). Her parents were initially skeptical about letting her move to Mumbai at 16, and her father objected to her playing a widow at that age; her mother filmed her audition at home on a handycam while she performed in a white saree[2](https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/tv/news/hindi/eisha-singh-recalls-bagging-her-first-role-in-ishq-ka-rang-safed-says-my-dad-didnt-want-me-to-play-a-widow-at-16/articleshow/131320611.cms). Her younger brother, Rudraksh, works as an actor-director[6](https://www.hindustantimes.com/htcity/cinema/raksha-bandhan-eisha-singh-i-will-always-make-time-for-the-festival-of-rakhi-101787827439579-amp.html).
## Television career
**Debut and early leads.** Singh's first role was Dhaani, a young widow, in *Ishq Ka Rang Safed* on Colors TV, which she played from 2015[1](https://www.indianfilmhistory.com/actor/eisha-singh). From 2016 to 2017 she starred in [Zee TV](https://www.edgepedia.org/zee-tv)'s *Ek Tha Raja Ek Thi Rani*, playing three characters: Raani Singh, a princess; Raani Chauhan, Raani's incarnated version; and Naina, a look-alike of Raani[3](https://www.zee5.com/zee5news/eisha-singh-biography/). In 2018 she took the role of Zara Ahmed in Zee TV's *Ishq Subhan Allah*, a social drama dealing with triple talaq (Islamic practice allowing instant divorce by saying 'talaq' three times) and women's empowerment; she said her own belief in gender equality made it easier to relate to the character[7](https://indianexpress.com/article/entertainment/television/ishq-subhan-allah-actor-eisha-singh-5108963/lite/). Between 2021 and 2022 she played Suhani opposite [Vivian Dsena](https://www.edgepedia.org/vivian-dsena) in the Colors TV drama *Sirf Tum*[1](https://www.indianfilmhistory.com/actor/eisha-singh).
**Bekaboo and Naagin 7.** In 2023 Singh played Bela Raichand, a Rajpari of Parilok, opposite [Shalin Bhanot](https://www.edgepedia.org/shalin-bhanot) in [Ekta Kapoor](https://www.edgepedia.org/ekta-kapoor)'s supernatural fantasy drama *Bekaboo*, which ran for over four months on Colors TV[1](https://www.indianfilmhistory.com/actor/eisha-singh). She rejected comparisons between the show and the film *Brahmastra*, saying the two had nothing in common[8](https://www.indiatoday.in/amp/television/celebrity/story/eisha-singh-on-bekaboos-comparisons-with-ranbir-kapoors-brahmastra-exclsuive-2347403-2023-03-16). From December 2025 to January 2026 she portrayed Ananta, a character she described as a charming diva unlike anything she had played before, in the supernatural show *Naagin 7* on Colors TV[1](https://www.indianfilmhistory.com/actor/eisha-singh) • [9](https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/tv/news/hindi/eisha-singh-to-get-something-you-have-to-lose-something/articleshow/127879709.cms).
**Juhi Mui.** In 2026 Singh took the title role in *[Juhi Mui](https://www.edgepedia.org/juhi-mui)*, airing on Colors TV and JioHotstar, playing Juhi, a young woman on the autism spectrum who aspires to become a lawyer[4](https://www.nationpress.com/entertainment/eisha-singh-on-autism-and-tvs-new-era). She conducted research on autism for the part and noted that the role requires minimal dialogue and restrained expression, a distinct challenge compared with conventional television acting[4](https://www.nationpress.com/entertainment/eisha-singh-on-autism-and-tvs-new-era). She said younger audiences are the primary driver of evolving television storytelling in India[4](https://www.nationpress.com/entertainment/eisha-singh-on-autism-and-tvs-new-era). The show was designed as a finite series; its final episode was set to air in October 2026, and Singh said she cried when the wind-up was announced earlier than she expected[10](https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/tv/news/hindi/eisha-singh-i-cried-when-they-told-us-juhi-mui-was-winding-up/amp_articleshow/134305027.cms).
## Film and web work
Singh made her Hindi film debut in Ratnaa Sinha's romantic comedy *Middle Class Love* (2022), opposite [Prit Kamani](https://www.edgepedia.org/prit-kamani), and received a Zee Cine Award nomination for Best Female Debut for the role[1](https://www.indianfilmhistory.com/actor/eisha-singh). She said at the time that doing a film did not mean she would stop working in television[11](https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/tv/news/hindi/just-because-i-have-done-a-film-it-does-not-mean-that-i-will-not-do-tv-now-eisha-singh/articleshow/94991163.cms). Her web work includes the ZEE5 drama series *Paithani*, directed by Gajendra Ahire, which premiered on 15 November 2024, and *Jab Mila Tu* (2024)[1](https://www.indianfilmhistory.com/actor/eisha-singh).
## Reality television
Singh participated in *Bigg Boss 18* in 2024 and finished in sixth place[1](https://www.indianfilmhistory.com/actor/eisha-singh). She became one of the most talked-about contestants of the season and later said she was unsure whether reality television makes an actor more relevant, but that it lets audiences see the person behind the on-screen character[12](https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/tv/news/hindi/eisha-singh-reality-show-has-no-filter-its-just-you/articleshow/132431554.cms). In November 2025 she joined the comedy cooking competition *Laughter Chefs – Unlimited Entertainment* Season 3, and she juggled that show with *Naagin 7*, describing the combined shooting hours as exhausting but enjoyable[1](https://www.indianfilmhistory.com/actor/eisha-singh) • [13](https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/tv/news/hindi/eisha-singh-i-dont-care-about-what-people-are-saying-about-me/articleshow/126478889.cms).
