FROM taking up modelling at a young age to taking up acting, Amyra Dastur says she's always been guided by the hand of destiny. The actress says she always had a flair for creativity. She'd actively take part in acting workshops since her childhood. She started her journey as a model at the age of 16, which eventually led to her being featured in numerous advertisements, and then came the call for auditions. She eventually made her debut with Prateik Babbar in Issaq in 2013. She even got a Filmfare nomination for Best Debut Actor (Female) for her performance in the film. She has had the privilege to bask in the glory of being part of a Jackie Chan film, Kung Fu Yoga (2017), that made her taste international recognition early on in her career. "I got a call from a casting director, and he said that it was an Indo-Chinese film, and Jackie Chan was the lead star. It was going to go for six months, and I'd have to travel to China. They asked me if I would be available. There was no chance of me saying no, of course, as Jackie Chan is my favourite," she gushes.
