Aishwarya Aher on her struggling days: "Would travel daily from Pune to Mumbai by train to give auditions."

Aishwarya Aher, who is currently seen in the colors show Parineeti, started her career as a model. After doing modelling, commercial advertisements and catalogue photoshoots, the young actress decided to try her luck at acting. However, her journey has not been a smooth sailing one. While exclusively talking to us, Aishwarya opened up about her struggles and more.

Talking about the struggles, Aishwarya says, "I was born and brought up in Pune and belong to a very middle-class family. I had to face a lot of struggles to finally arrive in Mumbai. Initially, I would travel daily from Pune to Mumbai by train to give auditions. I used to catch a train at exactly 7 am in the morning because the ticket was cheaper during that time. I used to give auditions between 11am to 4pm and would catch the train at 5pm to go back to Pune. So, my life was all about travel, giving auditions and coming back as I didn't have a house in Mumbai to stay."

She further adds, "I can never complain about my struggles to become an actor, because that's a part of life. 'Life mai kuch bhi asani se nahi milta', you have to struggle for that. I even faced rejections initially but I never lost hope, I kept on auditions until I bagged the role. I always managed in those difficult situations and was able to do something good for myself."

Talking about how her journey has been so far in the industry, Aishwarya says, "It has been an adventurous ride and I have enjoyed every bit of it. I love what I am doing. I am very glad that I have carved my place in showbiz, have creative satisfaction and the amazing feedback from the audience. I just hope that I keep entertaining the audience with my craft."

Aishwarya has entertained the masses in projects like Kuch Toh Hai: Naagin Ek Naye Rang Mein, Indiawali Maa, and Story 9 Months Ki.
