Abhay Daga in ‘Siya Ke Ram’.
There are many faces in the entertainment world, some shine like stars, some fade over time, but there are some which are always remembered by making their own way. Abhay Daga is one such name. He made an identity by acting on TV, but his destination was different. While most of the artists remain in the glare of glamor, Abhay selected a new floor leaving the world behind. He not only won the hearts of the people with his acting, but also became the IPS officer by securing 185th rank in India’s most difficult exam UPSC. This journey from acting to administrative service was not simple, this is the story of a person who created himself again at every point. Abhay Daga is now in a new role and is serving the country in real life, not on screen this time.
Identification from this show
Abhay Daga made her identity on TV from Star Plus’ historical show ‘Siya Ke Ram’, where her character was remembered for the audience for a long time. But his journey was not limited to acting only. Abhay studied computer science from IIT Kharagpur and then started working as a cyber security expert in a global company like Microsoft. Despite so much success in the technical field, his heart continued to draw towards art. During college days, he woke up interest in the theater and from here his journey of acting started. Along with studies and tech career, he proved himself in front of the camera, showing that passion and professional success are possible simultaneously. Abhay’s story is an example that if the talent finds direction, he shines on every stage.

Used to do this work earlier
But the story of Abhay Daga is not stopping here, but from here a new chapter begins. An artist who made an identity in the world of acting and achieved a great place in the world of technology, then decides to move in a completely different direction. In 2018, he joined Microsoft and worked against the growing digital fraud in India as part of the cyber security team. But something else was going on inside, taking a new dream shape. In the year 2021, when most people were entangled in Kovid, Abhay left everything and chose a challenging path, preparing for UPSC. This was the third major turn of his life after the world of acting and technology, where he once again decided to define himself. This decision was not just a career, but was a symbol of the resolve to serve the country.
Third time chose new path
Abhay Daga wrote the script of his dreams himself and also lived it. After just two years of tireless hard work and dedication, he took the UPSC exam for the first time in 2023 and secured 185th rank across the country. This is not just the story of passing an exam, but shows how a person can reach a strong floor even by following different paths. Where most people stay in a career, Abhay set three places, an actor, a technology expert, and now a civil servant. In November 2024, he started training at the National Police Academy in Hyderabad and got Uttar Pradesh cadre in 2025, although his home state is Maharashtra. He is currently away from acting.
