With the British TV series Beecham House, Shriya Pilgaonkar is shooting for the stars and proving herself worth of her parents’ Sachin and Supriya Pilgaonkar’s legacy. She speaks about working on the series with the very talented Gurinder Chadha and making it big on her own, despite being an industry kid.
It’s in the blood. Yes, the chances of being talented can be in the blood. The discussion of nepotism will be eternal in the film industry. But exceptions are there who are not dependent on their family for their career. They want to make their mark on their own. And some of them are succeeding on their own steam. Shriya Pilgaonkar is one such young lass who is a chip off the old block. Daughter of actor-filmmaker par excellence Sachin Pilgaonkar and actress Supriya Pilgaonkar, she has been creating her own niche since she was launched by her father in the Marathi film Ekulti Ek. Of course, she had worked as a child artist in her father’s shows. Yet her journey towards success in the entertainment world is her own. Be it starring opposite Shah Rukh Khan in Fan and acting in a French movie Un Plus Une or acting in plays with stalwarts, she is choosing her projects wisely.
