I’m a cinephile( who is fond of cinemas) since childhood. I use to get really fascinated after seeing celebrities in award shows. I use to keep telling my mom that I want to be there when I grow up. But as I grew up and explored myself.. I got a bigger purpose.. I.e I developed a liking for traveling and visiting new places learning new languages! Meeting new people’s and knowing their life style. Wishing that I could live their life once. So this illusion turned into dream and dream into reality.
2. What has been the key moment so far in your life?
Key moment.. Umm The moment I started believing in myself and overcoming my fears and inhibitions to make this choice! The choice that got me to enter this industry.
3. Who’s been your role model and what things about your idol influences you the most?
Hrithik Roshan, He fought though all odds to be where he is right now! I having gone through a similar phase where I had speech problems! He therefore inspires me to do the same with his “ Nothing is impossible “ attitude.
