Sarika Salunkhe is a Marathi television actress who became one of the most-cast faces on the Ullu app in 2024 and 2025. Fans first knew her as Niri in Star Pravah’s Pinkicha Vijay Aso!, and she went on to play leads in Ullu originals such as Numbari, Shaukiya and Nurse.
This guide lists every web series we could confirm for her, with release dates, platforms and the characters she played. It also explains where you can still watch these shows now that Ullu has been blocked in India.
Who is Sarika Salunkhe?
Sarika Salunkhe comes from Satara district in Maharashtra. She started in local theatre and small Marathi YouTube projects such as Katri before landing her television breakthrough as Niri, the heroine’s younger sister, in the Star Pravah serial Pinkicha Vijay Aso!. She is one of several TV actresses who moved to Ullu web series.
Her move to streaming came in 2024 with Numbari, where IMDb lists her as the lead, Disha. Over the next twelve months she appeared in close to ten Ullu releases, which made her one of the app’s busiest actresses until it was blocked in India in July 2025.

Best Sarika Salunkhe Web Series to Watch
If you are new to her work, these are the series that define her Ullu run.
1. Numbari (Ullu, 2024)
Her first major lead and still the series she is best known for. Sarika plays Disha, and the show’s success is what turned the Marathi TV actress into a regular Ullu headliner.
2. Kala Khatta (Ullu, 2024)
Part 1 premiered on 13 September 2024 with three episodes. Sarika plays Bholi alongside Ayushi Bhowmick, Priyanka Chaurasia and Ajay Kumar Singh. The story follows an older man who spikes his niece’s drinks, a plan that spirals when his pregnant daughter-in-law drinks one instead (Filmibeat).
3. Shaukiya (Ullu, 2024)
Released in November 2024 with Muskaan Agarwal as her co-lead. Sarika plays a young woman visiting her uncle’s home, where a romance turns into a “hired wife” arrangement and a pregnancy with a disputed father (Filmibeat).
4. Kya Khoob Lagti Ho (Ullu, 2024)
Part 1 dropped on 19 November 2024, with Jinnie Jaaz in the cast. Sarika plays Sarla, a bride widowed on her wedding night whose brothers-in-law become drawn to her (Filmibeat).
5. Nurse (Ullu, 2024–2025)
Part 1 premiered on 27 December 2024 and Part 2 followed in early January 2025. Sarika carries the title role as Anisha, a nurse posted to a village who gets entangled with a married man, Rishi, and his scheming father.
6. Bade Achhe Lagte Hai (Ullu, 2025)
Her last major Ullu release before the ban, premiering on 20 June 2025. She plays Sanyogita opposite Ankita Bhattacharya. It came out shortly after Haseena Maan Jayegi on the same app.
House Arrest: Her Reality Show Appearance
House Arrest was not a scripted web series. It was an Ullu reality show hosted by Ajaz Khan, and Sarika was one of the contestants along with Gehana Vasisth, Humera Shaikh, Aabha Paul and Muskaan Agarwal. Ullu pulled the show in early May 2025 after a clip went viral, the Mumbai Police registered an FIR and the National Commission for Women summoned Ajaz Khan and Ullu’s CEO (The Week).
See our House Arrest contestant guide, plus the Gehana Vasishth web series list and Humera Shaikh web series list for two of her co-contestants.
Sarika Salunkhe Telugu Film Work
IMDb credits Sarika with an uncredited role as Pooja in Peddi (2026), the Telugu film starring Ram Charan and Janhvi Kapoor. Earlier reports that she made her Telugu debut in a film called Varadaraju Govindam could not be confirmed, as published cast details for that film do not include her.
Where to Watch Sarika Salunkhe Web Series in 2026
Almost all of her web series are Ullu originals, and that matters. On 25 July 2025 the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting ordered Ullu, ALTT and 23 other apps blocked in India over obscene content (exchange4media). Here is where each part of her work stands:
- Ullu: Numbari, Kala Khatta, Taras, Shaukiya, Kya Khoob Lagti Ho, Nurse and Bade Achhe Lagte Hai. Blocked in India since July 2025, so these are not legally streamable there while the order stands.
- JioHotstar (formerly Disney+ Hotstar): Reeta Sanyal, where she appears in one episode, and the Star Pravah serial Pinkicha Vijay Aso!.
- Theatres and OTT: Peddi (2026), the Telugu film with her uncredited role.
Avoid sites that offer “free downloads” of her shows. They host pirated copies, often carry malware and are not a legitimate way to watch.
