Today (17 September 2012) is really a special day in the world of Indian television. We already wished Sanaya Irani a very happy birthday and now it’s the turn of beautiful Niaa Sharma to get a warm hug from her fans. Yes, it’s Niaa’s birthday as well. And the lady is quite excited about it. “Well, I am immensely happy; it’s one of the best birthdays I have had till date. I never expected to have such an amazing birthday in my life. I have received so many gifts, bouquets and blessings,” shared Niaa, who is seen as Maanvi in Star Plus’ Ek Hazaaron Mein Meri Behna Hai. She continued, “Talking about gifts, my mother gifted me a diamond ring. Kushal (Tandon) gifted me a pair of shoes, bouquets, chocolates and balloons, among many other things. Krystal (Dsouza) gifted me a perfume while Karan (Tacker) gave me a bouquet.” “Last night, I was with my mother and brother. I fans wished me throughout the night yesterday. I want to thank them and their families. This morning, I went to the Siddhivinayak temple with my family, had breakfast and had a stroll across Marine Drive. Right now, I am shooting the entire day. Don’t know when the shoot will wrap up. I want to say that I have got everything in my birthday but I miss my dad who is now no more.” Finally, she shared, “I just want my serial to be successful and wish it reaches the number one spot soon.” We wish you a very happy birthday and a great year ahead… Niaa.
