Shrey Mittal (born 22 February 1995) is an Indian actor and reality TV personality best known for winning the reality show Splitsvilla in 2020[1] and for his leading role in the Hindi-language television series Naagin 6 in 2022–2023.[2][3] Hailing from Indore,[4] Mittal studied film production at the Whistling Woods International institute in Mumbai and acting at the Lee Strasberg Theatre and Film Institute in Los Angeles.[5] A versatile performer who has acted in Hindi television series, web series, and films, Mittal also ventured into film production in 2024 by launching his post-production studio, FX Fantasy.[5]
Career
[edit]Mittal first gained significant public attention by winning season 12 of the reality television show Splitsvilla in 2020.[1] He subsequently acted in recurring roles in the television series Indiawaali Maa in 2020–2021[6] and Pishachini in 2022.[7] Following this he starred in the popular television series Naagin 6 alongside actor Tejasswi Prakash, where he played a lead role for seven months (2022–2023).[2][3]
Mittal has expressed a strong preference for acting roles that provide him with creative satisfaction,[8][9] and has ventured into web series and films in addition to his television work. In 2024 he acted in a drama-comedy web series titled Social Disconnect that is directed by Karishma Kohli and also features actors Ileana D'Cruz, Vihaan Samat, and Anya Singh.[9] He will make his film debut with the Hindi-language film Operation AMG, which is based on the 2022 Operation Ganga mission for evacuating Indian students from war-torn Ukraine.[10]
Despite his successes, Mittal's career has faced challenges including project cancellations and delays that were particularly exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic.[11][12] These setbacks, which occurred after his initial success in Splitsvilla, include a shelved project named Raah-e-Ishq and an unnamed action film that was ultimately not produced.[9]
In 2024 Mittal launched his post-production studio, FX Fantasy.[5] From December 2025 to February 2026, he portrayed Krish Khanna in Mangal Lakshmi, after a two year television hiatus.[13]
