Actors from other professions

They are more than just pretty faces on screen. These actors are trained professionals who later made their move into the glamour industry.

Shefali Zariwalla, item girl from Kanta Laga
When I was in school I always wanted to be a pilot but my father was not in favour of it so I pursued science. I did my junior college in science and electronics. Then I did my diploma in computer technology and my degree in information technology so I am an engineer by profession. I worked with a couple of engineering companies for my college assignments but even before I completed my education Kanta Laga happened. I was introduced into showbiz while I was studying for my engineering so after that I couldn't really go out there and work; and I didn't need to.

Getting into this industry just happened by chance. I was standing somewhere and the director spotted me and offered me the song. I hadn't even imagined in my wildest dreams that I would be in show business.

I always enjoyed studying and I wanted to study further. I want to do my MBA at some time in my life. An education never gets wasted. You can always fall back on it any time. Maybe when I'm over and done with showbiz I will do something related to my field which is information technology. Work with a company and then probably have my own IT firm.
