What first connected you to TV?

Ever since childhood, I was fascinated by actors on television as my mom used to watch a lot of TV shows. So I think the idea of being an actor seeded in very early. I felt connected and wanted to act on television since then.

You have done diverse projects. Which has given you the greatest joy?

I have enjoyed almost all my projects except a couple of them, but top on the list is definitely Udaan as I could explore my acting capabilities.

Who have you most enjoyed working with?

Ashlesha Sawant and Meera Deosthale. I am enjoying working with Nia Sharma and Jasmin Bhasin also these days (on Naagin: Bhagya Ka Zehreela Khel). All of them are good actors.

What kind of TV shows do you enjoy?

I watch a lot of crime shows. I love Crime Alert, Crime Patrol and other such shows.

Who is your TV hero?

For me, the biggest hero is the script of the show.

What is the plan ahead?

I would really want to direct some day.

What inspires you?

In TV, you got to inspire yourself by working on your conviction.

If you could master something new, what would it be?

I would love to be a really good dancer and I want to master some dance forms in the future.

What are your passions away from work?

Fitness is something I am passionate about.

Why do you love what you do professionally?

I love acting as I enjoy being in front of the camera and do my work with 100 per cent conviction. I feel I was born to be an actor.

“Why can’t I just run?”: A south Asian woman’s harrowing harassment story

I was five years old when my parents first signed me up for a mini marathon. They were both keen runners and wanted me to follow in their footsteps. At the time, I hated it. Running felt like punishment — exhausting, uncomfortable, and something I never imagined I’d do by choice.

But one moment changed everything. I was 12, attending a gymnastics competition, and had gone to the car alone to grab my hula hoop. As I walked back, a group of men started shouting at me. They moved closer. I didn’t wait to hear what they had to say — I ran. Fast. My heart was pounding. It was the first time I felt afraid simply for existing in public as a young girl. I never told anyone. But I remember feeling thankful, strangely, that my parents had taught me how to run.
