Actor Maanvi Gagroo says her hit web series Four More Shots Please! helped her shed her girl-next-door image. The 37-year-old actor, known for her work on series TVF Pitchers, TVF Tripling, as well as movies Ujda Chaman and Shubh Mangal Zyada Saavdhan, believes Amazon Original Four More Shots Please! has pushed her career in a positive direction.

Till Four More Shots...! happened I was getting roles that were girl-next-door. So, in terms of presenting myself in a glamorous and fashionable way, this show is something I had never done before. Suddenly people started taking me seriously and it also helped me gain the currency of social media following, which is very important in today’s time and age,” the actor said.

Gagroo added, “The kind of offers I am getting now are interesting... Thankfully, I am in a place where I can pick and choose. I would consider this a privilege because a lot of actors don’t have that. I myself didn’t have it till a few years ago. I wish this good fortune continues.”

Four More Shots Please! is a celebration of “female friendship, love, being unapologetically yourself and accepting yourself wholly”.

The show also stars Kirti Kulhari, Sayani Gupta and Bani J.

Gagroo is happy that the show enjoys a loyal fan base. “It is about friendship, it is about female friendship and how empowering that can be or should be. It is about their personal journey and we are sure it resonates with some people and that there are different takeaways for different people,” the actor added.

In season three, Gagroo said, the four lead characters will be seen grappling with grief in their own different ways.

“Season three has been a transformative experience,” she said.

Gagroo's other show Tripling has also dropped its third season. She shared, “I am excited that people will get to see me in two different characters as the world of both the shows are different. I hope the audience loves them equally.”
