About Shivani Singh
Shivaani M Singh, often credited as Shivani Singh, is an Indian actress who made her screen debut as the female lead of the Telugu film Ye Mantram Vesave (2018) and is best known for the Hindi crime series Shiksha Mandal (2022). Ye Mantram Vesave, opposite Vijay Deverakonda, was the first film of the director Shridhar Marri and reached cinemas on 9 March 2018 after a long wait. Shivaani played Rags, the woman at the centre of a game that turns dangerous. A Telugu cinema profile published as the film opened described her as a Delhi-born model who had also performed on stage and who signed on in 2014. The film itself was poorly reviewed, and one critic called her an adequate fit for the part. Her Hindi and English-language work followed on streaming. She is the neighbour Radha in the Amazon Prime Video comedy Mind the Malhotras (2019), and in Shiksha Mandal, released on MX Player on 15 September 2022, she plays the journalist Shivaani Dubey, fiancée of Gulshan Devaiah's lead character, in a nine-episode thriller inspired by the Vyapam exam scam. IANS described the series as her OTT debut. In 2026 she appears as the teacher Ananya in the short-form Hindi drama Pi Girl and as Manjari, a homemaker, in the six-episode relationship drama Dil Padosi, which premiered on ShemarooMe on 15 October 2026 with Nyrraa M Banerji, Jai Talwar and Pranav Kumaarr. Many actresses share the name Shivani Singh, so credits are easy to mix up. This page covers only the performer in Ye Mantram Vesave, Mind the Malhotras, Shiksha Mandal, Pi Girl and Dil Padosi; she is not in the Malayalam film Kumari (2022).

Fun facts about Shivani Singh

- Shiksha Mandal is a nine-episode thriller drawn from the real Vyapam scam over medical entrance exams in Madhya Pradesh.

2018
Telugu debut
Ye Mantram Vesave opens on 9 March 2018 with her as Rags, opposite Vijay Deverakonda, in the first film directed by Shridhar Marri. She says she does not speak Telugu well and was helped with her lines.[1][2]

2022
Shiksha Mandal premieres
The nine-episode MX Player thriller arrives on 15 September 2022. She plays the journalist Shivaani Dubey alongside Gulshan Devaiah, Gauahar Khan and Pavan Malhotra.[5][7][16]
2022
Talks about playing a journalist
On 5 October 2022 an IANS interview calls Shiksha Mandal her OTT debut. She says the role was demanding because Shivaani must be a competitive professional and also gentle in her private life with Aditya and his family.[6]

Nyrraa M Banerji
Style, technique and reception
Her roles so far are polished, urban women: the game designer Rags in a Telugu thriller, the neighbour Radha in an English-language Prime Video comedy, the successful journalist Shivaani Dubey in a Hindi crime series, and the homemaker Manjari in a Hindi relationship drama. She has worked across Telugu, Hindi and English-language productions within eight years.[2][4][6][9]
Her 2018 debut came in a film that critics largely disliked. Wikipedia records mostly negative reviews, and Telugu360, which gave it 1.5 out of 5, called her an adequate fit for the urbane characterisation while criticising the casting overall.[2][3]
On Shiksha Mandal she told IANS the challenge was to play a driven, competitive journalist who is also soft in her relationship with Aditya. Cineblues rated the series 3.5 out of 5, though it found the fiancée storyline one of the weaker parts of an otherwise gripping thriller.[6][7]
Name confusion follows her. Shivani Singh is a common name: Kumari (2022) is a Malayalam film in which she does not appear, and a Shivani Singh announced in 2018 as a lead of Grazia's web series Intern Diaries, described as a Miss Diva Universe 2014 contestant, is filed by TMDB under the same profile with no source tying her to this actress. Neither credit is claimed here.[14][15][16]

Questions about Shivani Singh
Who is Shivani Singh, the actress also credited as Shivaani M Singh?
Shivaani M Singh, often credited as Shivani Singh or Shivaani Singh, is an Indian actress who played Rags opposite Vijay Deverakonda in the Telugu film Ye Mantram Vesave (2018) and the journalist Shivaani Dubey in the Hindi series Shiksha Mandal (2022). In 2026 she appears in Pi Girl and Dil Padosi. There are many unrelated actresses called Shivani Singh, so this page covers only the performer in those credits.
What are Shivaani Singh's movies and TV shows?
Her credits are the Telugu film Ye Mantram Vesave (2018), the Amazon Prime Video comedy Mind the Malhotras (2019, as Radha), the MX Player thriller Shiksha Mandal (2022, as Shivaani Dubey), the short-form drama Pi Girl (2026, as Ananya) and the ShemarooMe series Dil Padosi (2026, as Manjari). Only one of them, Ye Mantram Vesave, is a feature film; the rest are web series.
How old is Shivani M Singh, and when is her birthday?
Her age is not public: we found no reliable source for her date of birth, so we do not publish one or a birthday. The earliest of her credits to be released is Ye Mantram Vesave in March 2018, which she shot in 2015. We do not publish a birth date that no source supports.
How tall is Shivani M Singh?
There is no reliable published height for Shivaani M Singh: we found no interview or official profile in which she gives one, and we do not use height figures from fan sites. Shivani Singh is a very common name, so heights listed for other women of that name should not be applied to her.
Who is Shivani Singh's husband?
Shivaani M Singh has not spoken publicly about a husband or partner in any reliable source we found, and we do not publish guesses. Press coverage of her work, including the IANS interview on Shiksha Mandal, concerns her roles rather than her private life.
What is Shivani Singh's net worth?
There is no reliable published net worth for Shivani Singh, and we do not quote estimates from net-worth sites. What is public is her work: the female lead in Ye Mantram Vesave (2018), a Telugu film that Wikipedia says performed poorly with no box office figures published, a listed cast role in the nine-episode Shiksha Mandal on MX Player, and roles in the six-episode Dil Padosi on ShemarooMe's Shemaroo Premiere. No fees or contracts for any of these have been published.
Which web series has Shivani M Singh been in?
She has appeared in Mind the Malhotras (2019), Shiksha Mandal (2022), Pi Girl (2026) and Dil Padosi (2026). Shiksha Mandal, in which she plays the journalist Shivaani Dubey, is the best known; IANS called it her OTT debut when it came out in September 2022. Searchers often type the same titles as 'shivaani m singh web series' or 'shivani singh web series'.
What is Shivani Singh's new show?
Her newest series is Dil Padosi, a six-episode Hindi relationship drama that premiered on ShemarooMe on 15 October 2026. She plays Manjari, a homemaker, alongside Nyrraa M Banerji, Jai Talwar and Pranav Kumaarr. She is also in the short-form drama Pi Girl, listed at 20 short episodes.
What was Shivani Singh's first film?
Her first film was the Telugu romantic thriller Ye Mantram Vesave, released on 9 March 2018 and directed by Shridhar Marri. She played Rags opposite Vijay Deverakonda, and she has said she signed on in 2014 and filmed her part in 2015. Reviews of the film were mostly negative.
Who does Shivaani Singh play in Shiksha Mandal?
She plays Shivaani Dubey, a respected journalist who is the fiancée of Aditya Rai, the lead character played by Gulshan Devaiah. The nine-episode series was released on MX Player on 15 September 2022 and was inspired by the Vyapam scam; it also stars Gauahar Khan and Pavan Malhotra.
Where is Shivani Singh from?
She is an Indian actress. A TeluguCinema profile published on 8 March 2018 said she was born in Delhi and began as a model; that is the only source we found, so no birth date or hometown is confirmed here.
Was Shivani Singh in Kumari (2022)?
No. Kumari (2022) is a Malayalam thriller directed by Nirmal Sahadev with Aishwarya Lekshmi in the title role, and Shivani Singh is not in its cast. Earlier versions of this page listed it by mistake.
Has Shivani Singh won any awards?
We found no award wins or nominations for Shivaani M Singh in any reliable source. Her best-known work, Shiksha Mandal, was rated 3.5 out of 5 by Cineblues, but no major prize has been reported for her.
Is she the same Shivani Singh who was in Intern Diaries?
We cannot confirm that. A Shivani Singh, described as a 2014 Miss Diva Universe contestant who started on TV in POW: Bandhi Yuddh Ke, was announced as a lead of Grazia's web series Intern Diaries in 2018, and TMDB files that series under the same profile. No source we found links her to the actress of Ye Mantram Vesave, so Intern Diaries is not listed here.
