Shrenu Parikh has done quite a few endorsements in Vadodara and was also seen in the popular TV show Gulaal. However, her real big moment took a while coming.
Shrenuhas been finalized as one of the female leads in the recently launched daily Havan on Colors, and she can't hide her excitement, "It's a really big break for me. I play a girl who belongs to a poor family and believes in a person called Baapji, who is like God to her. It's a beautiful story and a concept that hasn't been tried before. And working with a reputed producer like Rajan Shahi is a dream come true. I am nervous, but also very excited. And I have got good feedback so far."
Interestingly, she wasn't hopeful of getting selected for the role initially. "My auditions didn't really go well and so, I thought I had no chance. But then, they held workshops and I got to learn a lot from senior actors. I am learning new things everyday and it's fun," shares Shrenu.
Quiz her about how she got inclined towards acting and Shrenusays, "I was always interested in modeling and my parents were very supportive. They taught me how to balance my studies and modeling. I have done many plays right since school days and also won a Miss University title in 2007, apart from winning a few other beauty contests held in Vadodara. I am also good at singing, have won a few dance competitions and hosted shows. Probably, getting into acting was a natural progression. In fact, as a kid, I used to mimic all popular characters of Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi!"
So what next? "I want to focus on the show. But I would love to be part of a dance reality show someday," she signs off.
