When Nalini Chetty graduated from drama school, a member of her family wondered what characters she’d play as she had “a Scottish accent but you don’t look Scottish".
Until she got the part of Zinnie Hassoun in River City, the actress conceded it was hard. But since leaving the soap – although she returned as part of last year’s 20th anniversary celebrations – Nalini has become a mainstay of Scottish-made shows, appearing in Karen Pirie, Six Four with Kevin McKidd and upcoming Crime 2 with Dougray Scott.
