Biography

Reecha Sharma was born in Dhangadhi, Nepal. She was raised in Kailali district. She now lives in Kathmandu.

She is actively involved in various projects related to women and children empowerment. "Unless the activism is grounded on a firm conviction", she says, "it cannot survive the test of time." For her, the awareness of being a woman in a society, where they are deprived of fully realizing themselves individuals, gave impetus for the activism. Unlike many activists, she doesn't consider her activism a separate part of her career, but an inevitable extension of being a woman with a voice in the country, where they have been silenced for too long.’’ Reecha Sharma has acted in 17 movies, two of which she produced herself.

She is married to Deepeksha Bikram Rana in December 2019 in Kathmandu.[5][6] The actress was in a relationship with Rana for two years. He is the General Manager of Lalitpur-based Labim Mall;[7] she gave birth to a son in September 2021.[8]
