Dancing TV journalist Shiksha Arora has announced that she is set to star in a Kenyan film titled Inside Job, set to premiere on global streaming platform Netflix.
Per her statement in an Instagram post on Tuesday, May 27, the film is set to premiere on June 14, 2025 and will feature her as a 'supporting actress'.

Arora shared photos of behind the scenes in the making of the film and revealed that her journey began as far back as January last year when she received a call to audition for a film...for the first time in her life.
"Your girl is going to be on Netflix! Jan 2024, I got a call from @theonlybrianrobert to do something that I have never done: audition for a movie. I got the role and got the opportunity to star in a movie," she wrote in part.
"We are going to be premiering on NETFLIX in a few days!!! I am officially adding “supporting actress” to my CV. Mark your calendars to watch INSIDE JOB - June 14th 2025."
The award-winning journalist joined TV47 from the state-owned KBC on July 19, 2024 and has been there since. Her Easy Friday show on KBC every Friday from 9 PM saw her host more than 100 Kenyan celebrities and artists spanning different cultures.
She is a vibrant and bold person who is fearless in changing the game many Kenyans have known news anchors over the years for; personalities who put on serious faces anytime they present news bulletins.
For Kenyans who have keenly followed her since her rise to journalism prominence at K24 TV, she has been wowing audiences with her dance moves, which have not only gone viral but also sent reputable brands fighting tooth and nail to land marketing contracts with her.
Her journey in the media industry began by chance when she worked as a part-time radio presenter at Easy FM, a move she never saw coming. She had a penchant for research and all things science and was intrigued by little organisms, hence her undergraduate studies in Microbiology.
Upon realising her newfound passion, she enrolled for a Master's degree in Journalism at Westminster University in the United Kingdom while simultaneously working at the British state broadcaster, BBC.
She landed her first job at Easy FM in 2013. In 2018, she was employed at K24 TV as a news anchor, where her career skyrocketed.
Arora, who is of Indian descent, has been recognised for her on-air skills, and she bagged the Best Female Anchor award at the Asian Weekly Achievers Awards in 2019.
Her expanded move could see her join media personalities such as Catherine Ngarira, popularly known as Cate Rira, who are stepping into the film industry for the first time, having made their name on mainstream TV and radio.
