How did you bag this role and what was your first reaction when you came to know that your character name is Faltu?

I auditioned for it a lot of times. I thought I won't get selected as the show is based on cricket. So, they may be wanting a pro cricketer or at least a girl who knows a little bit about cricket. I was truly clueless I didn't know the proper plot. So, when I got selected I was thrilled. This was like a dream come true to do a character role in the same channel for some show to then play the lead for the same. I am just grateful. Firstly, I thought what kind of name this is Faltu but when the producer sir narrated the story, I fell in love with it.

What kind of roles are you looking forward to in your career in future?

I want to play different and challenging roles like the one in Faltu with different layers to it.

How do you strike a work-life balance amid a hectic schedule?

Honestly, I don't get day-offs or much time after the shoot. But I try to spend it taking care of myself, studying and spending that little time with friends and family.
