Shambhavi Singh recounts tough battle in convincing family to agree with her career choice
Actress Shambhavi Singh, set to headline the upcoming thriller series '10:29 Ki Aakhri Dastak', has revealed the arduous journey she underwent to pursue her passion for acting, particularly in navigating familial opposition and the daunting transition from a small town to Mumbai's bustling entertainment industry.
Originating from Patna, Singh encountered significant resistance from her family when she expressed her aspirations to pursue a career in acting. "Entering the acting field was quite challenging for me, especially coming from a small town where pursuing a career in acting was not easy as everyone used to think it is not a stable profession. My father was initially against the idea, and convincing my family was one of the toughest battles I’ve faced," she disclosed.
Despite overcoming familial objections, Singh encountered formidable hurdles in securing substantial roles and acclimating to Mumbai's competitive landscape. "Even after convincing my parents, it was a challenge to get a good role, and coming to Mumbai and managing things by myself was a big task. Although I had done one show before, landing the lead role in '10:29 Ki Aakhri Dastak' is a monumental achievement for me," she reflected, underscoring the significance of her breakthrough opportunity.
Detailing her portrayal of Preeti in the series, Singh expressed enthusiasm for portraying a character distinct from her previous roles. "I am playing Preeti, which is a very different character than the one I played before. I hope the viewers will like the show and shower love on my character. Starting my career with a show on such a prestigious channel is a fantastic opportunity. I am thrilled about the show, particularly because of its unique and compelling storyline," she shared, exuding confidence in the project's potential.
As Singh prepares to embark on this new chapter in her career, her journey serves as a testament to perseverance and determination in pursuing one's dreams, transcending barriers and embracing opportunities for growth and artistic expression. With '10:29 Ki Aakhri Dastak' poised to captivate audiences, Singh's ascent to the forefront of the series heralds the emergence of a promising talent in the entertainment industry.
