From Mai to The Accidental Prime Minister. Tell us about your journey in the world of acting?
My journey of acting started way before Mai, I was doing theatre and on stage plays. At the age of 14, I realised acting is my true calling, and joined Prithvi Theatre for an acting workshop. The place introduced me to the world of theatre, art, and stage, and I completely immersed myself into it. I got a formal education in acting from Whistling Woods for two years. After that, I started assisting Shanoo Sharma on My Name Is Khan. It was an internship that turned into a job, and then before I knew it, I was offered Yudh, followed by a film called The Blueberry Hunt.
My first commercial success was Lipstick Under My Burkha, and soon it was followed by The Accidental Prime Minister. I did some successful web series like Official Chukyagiri and Inside Edge. So, it has been a fantastic journey and thankfully I never had to really beg in front of anybody for work.
Being a Lucknow girl, you entered in a dazzling but a completely different world of Bollywood. What inspired you to become an actor in the first place?
