Career
Being a child actress, Asha Banks has been developing a great theatre experience on the West End, and her first roles were at about the age of seven or eight (including in Les Misérables).

Her portrayal of Cara Ward in the BBC Three adaptation of A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder (2024–present) has given her a great spotlight.
The following year, she was cast as Noah in a touching romantic drama My Fault: London (based on a Spanish novel series), a role that led the viewers to experience her different shades of emotions, and the lead character’s intimacy and vulnerability really made the fans connect with her.
She was also cast as Princess Pamina in the highly acclaimed film adaptation of The Magic Flute (2022).
An equally good singer and songwriter by profession, with the very public on the side of her music career, Asha Banks is planning a debut headline tour in 2026 and music releases of her own which are most probably going to be inspired by intimate, guitar-led artists.
Besides acting, music and creative projects are also the areas where she is giving her time and energy.
