Acclaimed Dhallywood actress Jaya Ahsan has solidified her presence in the Kolkata film industry, viewing her professional journey as a seamless endeavor that transcends international borders. Despite holding a foreign passport, the actress maintains that her long-standing commitment to Bengali cinema has made her an integral part of the local industry. Reflecting on her career in a recent interview, Ahsan noted that her output remains consistent regardless of her residency status, emphasizing that her dedication to the craft is driven by a commitment to Bengali films rather than geographical affiliation.

Beyond her professional endeavors, Ahsan has joined the global fervor surrounding the ongoing football World Cup. While the intense rivalry between Argentina and Brazil has dominated public discourse, the actress revealed a preference that deviates from the conventional fan base. A self-proclaimed football enthusiast who previously attended the tournament in Russia, Ahsan expressed a deep affinity for Portugal. She noted that while she holds great admiration for Cristiano Ronaldo, she also maintains a soft spot for Lionel Messi, even as the constant noise of the Argentina-Brazil debate makes it difficult to voice her personal allegiance.

As she navigates the demands of her career, Ahsan remains modest regarding her personal life, particularly concerning her birthday. While she eschews elaborate celebrations, she admits that the outpouring of affection from friends, family, and fans provides a sense of special meaning to the day. The actress reflected on her childhood memories, laughing at the recollection of wearing butterfly-themed dresses, and confessed that the spectacle of birthday festivities feels somewhat awkward to her as an adult.
