Additi had no acting aspirations

It's been just 2 months since Kis Desh Mein Hai Meraa Dil started on Star Plus. But the serial has gone on to bag many nominations. Additi Gupta, who plays the main lead in the serial, has managed to get the nominations for not one but for three categories for the same serial - Favourite Beti, Favorite Yogya Jodi and Favourite Naya Sadasya (Female).

Additi hails from Pune and feels completely new to Mumbai's kind of lifestyle. Additi, who has done fashion designing as well, says, "As a person I had never thought of acting at all. In fact I was doing my fashion designing course back in Pune and acting happened to me by chance and that's when I thought of giving it a shot. It feels great when you get such kind of recognition for hardwork within such a short span of time."

Additi is not worried about winning. "Getting nominated itself is a big thing and and too for a serial which has just started and replaced Kasauti Zindagi Kii which was a huge success. So I am really not thinking about winning but definitely looking forward to the awards nite as it will be first awards function," she explains.

Additi will be performing at the function and is really nervous as this too will be her first performance on stage. In fact initially she had rejected the offer of performing. "Although I have been facing camera for some time now still I am camera shy and not used to so many people around me. So performing for the awards was something which I was not feeling comfortable about. But somewhere one has to get over the fear so even I thought of that and later accepted the offer," she concludes.
