Yogita Bihani, who has been a part of the National Award-winning film The Kerala Story, recently opened up about an unexpected shift in how she gained public recognition. Despite years of hard work in the acting field, she confessed that it wasn’t her film performances that made her a familiar face to the public—it was her brief appearances on the YouTube vlogs of her partner, Aaryamann Sethi, son of Archana Puran Singh and Parmeet Sethi, that caught the viewers’ attention.
In a recent video shared by Aaryamann, Yogita narrated an incident that took place at the airport. She had just landed and was waiting near the baggage carousel when a woman and her daughter approached her hesitantly and asked if she was Yogita. Surprised yet polite, Yogita confirmed her identity.
The duo excitedly told her that they had seen her in the vlogs and even took pictures with her. They expressed how much they enjoyed watching her and Aaryamann together on screen and encouraged them to continue creating content. Yogita mentioned that she informed them Aaryamann was supposed to pick her up but hadn’t arrived yet due to her flight landing earlier than expected, which visibly disappointed the fans.
Reflecting on the moment, Yogita shared that it was the very first time someone had approached her in public with recognition. What surprised her most was the fact that it wasn’t her acting work that had sparked the recognition—it was her casual presence in her boyfriend’s social media videos. With a hint of amusement and irony, she noted how years of acting hadn’t brought her the attention that just a few vlogs managed to.
"I realised this is the first time someone has spotted me and recognised me. That too for my appearance on Aary Vlogs. I have been working as an actor for so long, but nobody ever recognised me for that. Nobody is recognising me for my acting; they only know me for your vlogs..." she told Aaryamann.
While Yogita continues to build her career in film, The Kerala Story, which featured Adah Sharma in the lead, emerged as a critical success. The movie told the story of girls from Kerala being manipulated and recruited by ISIS, a narrative that drew controversy for its exaggerated claim that 32,000 women were radicalised — a figure later removed after legal objections. Despite the disputes, the film performed strongly, crossing ₹300 crore in earnings and winning awards for Best Director and Best Cinematography at the 71st National Film Awards.
