Shreya Chaudhry is an Indian actress who primarily works in Hindi films. She made her acting debut with Dear Maya (2017). Chaudhry had since earned recognition with her role in Bandish Bandits (2020–2024) and The Mehta Boys (2025).

Career

Chaudhry made her acting debut in 2017 with Dear Maya, playing a college student co-starring Manisha Koirala. Shubhra Gupta felt she "looks the part", but gets a little stilted. In 2018, she played a bride opposite Pavail Gulati in the short film The Other Way.

Chaudhry had her career breakthrough with her streaming debut Bandish Bandits. She played a pop singer opposite Ritwik Bhowmik. The two seasons released in 2020 and 2024 respectively. Saibal Chatterjee noted, "Shreya (along with Ritwik), do a fair job of conveying the range of emotions sparked by the twosome's quickly changing fortunes. The way they hold their own alongside the stalwarts in the cast is noteworthy." The series earned her nomination for Filmfare OTT Award for Best Actress in a Drama Series and won her the IIFA Digital Award for Best Actress – Web Series.

Chaudhry played an architecture in the 2025 film The Mehta Boys, opposite Avinash Tiwary. It follows a troubled father-son relationship. Abhimanyu Mathur noted, "Shreya is the film's moral compass. She brings confidence, panache, and sensitivity together."
