Amrita Acharia

She spent her first seven years in Nepal, before her father's job took the family to England and then, as a teenager, to Tromsø, Norway.

[2] At the age of 19, having finished high school in Norway, Acharia moved to England seeking a career in acting.

[1] Acharia played the role of Irri, a Dothraki servant of Daenerys Targaryen in the first two seasons of Game of Thrones.

[5] In a scene cut from the broadcast programmes, Irri was strangled by her fellow handmaiden Doreah (played by Roxanne McKee).

Acharia played an NHS junior doctor who, faced with frustration at work and issues in her personal life, responds to an advert to work at a public hospital in the southern Indian state of Kerala (although the show was actually filmed in Sri Lanka rather than India).
