Meet Naina Avtr, India's 1st AI actor
Say hello to Naina Avtr, India's first AI actor, created by Avtr Meta Labs. She recently made her debut in "Truth & Lies," a micro-drama series on Instagram Reels that dropped on October 21, 2025.
Set over one night in Mumbai, the show explores friendship, betrayal, and trust—all packed into quick one-minute episodes made by an all-women team.
How Naina brings AI to Indian drama
Naina isn't just digital—she's designed to capture Indian emotions and cultural vibes.
She acts alongside real people with synced eye-lines and lighting for a seamless look.
The series blends AI, 3D tech, and real-time storytelling, with every episode checked for ethical standards before going live.
What makes Naina different
Naina puts emotional depth and cultural connection front and center—unlike Western AI avatars that focus more on cinematic style.
As she puts it: "I'm not here to replace humans; I'm here to reflect them, one emotion at a time."
This series opens up new ways for digital actors to tell stories that actually feel relatable for Indian audiences.
