CAREER AT A GLANCE
Born in Nainital on November 20,1987, Sukirti Kandpal was all set to become a lawyer when she was spotted by a casting director of Cinevistaas in a cafe, which changed the direction of her career.
She was first asked to audition for Star One's Dill Mil Gayye, but she instead got a leading role in Sab TV's youthful show Jersey No.10 where she played a tennis player called Sakshi. This got her noticed, and soon, she was offered Dill Mill Gayye again, this time as a replacement for main lead Shilpa Anand. Usually, replacements don't work, but in this case, Sukirti was accepted widely as Dr.Riddhima Gupta, for Dill Mill Gayye. Although she eventually quit the show, Sukirti shot into the limelight with this show.
Sukirti next did an about turn, choosing to play an eccentric character Siddeshwari Singh aka Chutki Dulhan with negative shades in Zee TV's Agle Janam Mohe Bitiya Hi Kijo.
Sukirti then did what was perhaps the biggest show of her career with Balaji Telefilms' youth show Pyaar Kii Ye Ek Kahaani. The show propelled her to popularity, earning her a large fan following thanks to her diametrically opposite double roles, girl-next-door Piya Jaiswal/Dobriyal and evil princess Maithali. Her fans have often demanded to see her reprise her role in a second season of the show.
Sukirti's next outing as lead was Life OK's Kaisa Ye Ishq Hai, Ajab Sa Risk Hai which became very popular at a late night slot and only increased her fan following. The show had two seasons, where Sukirti's character, Simran Khanna went from being an NRI from Singapore to being accepted in a traditional "sasural" in rural Haryana.
After this show, Sukirti moved back into her favoured genre of youth shows with &TV's Dilli Wali Thakur Gurls, where she played main lead, journalist Debjani Thakur. The show completed 150 episodes as of its ending, which left many fans heartbroken. The show has definitely established Sukirti's versatility and increased her fandom. Her fans are already missing her and are eagerly waiting for her next television venture.
Other shows
Sukirti did a short role in Zee TV's Rab Se Sohna Ishq as a grey-shaded London NRI, Jazz, which is still remembered by fans. She also did two episodes on Star One's horror show Shh...Phir Koi Hai.
