Kanika Maheshwari in Viraasat

Kanika Maheshwari will soon be seen matching her histrionics skills with the likes of Rohit Roy, Kiran Kumar and Amarr Upadhay in Ravi Chopra's Viraasat.

Kanikawhoplays Amy in Star One's India Calling will play Juhi who is the grand-daughter of Raman Lamba (Kiran Kumar) who is the family patriarch. "The character has shades of grey...she reacts to different situations differently," says Kanika, who seems very excited about being part of such a huge show.

The actor has been shooting for the show for three days now and the experience, she says has been great. "They are so cooperative. In the beginning I thought that I was lucky to be on the show, but as I started shooting I realised that I needed to get better and learn more in order to improve my performance," points out Kanika, who was chosen out of more than 60 girls, including known faces in the industry.

Ask her about her experience on the sets of India Calling and the lady starts talking nineteen to the dozen. "It's a blast working with Shrishti di (producer Shrishti Arya) She is so understanding and caring that it feels like home. India Calling is like a school that we go to and the director is the principal! It's so much fun!" smiles the actor.

Kanika's career so far!
