Ms. Namita Nayyar
Mahira, you started your career as a model, henceforth you appeared in a lot of tv shows and reality shows, tell us how has your journey been and how did you decide to be an actor
Ms. Mahira Sharma
I started my career at a young age I was just a teenager when I started working in Yaaron ke Tashan. Since childhood, everyone told me to do acting. This was when I was in Jammu and that’s when I decided I’ll become an actor and move to my mother’s place. But when the time came my interests kept changing. After some time I thought of giving it a shot anyway and gave two auditions and got rejected as I looked younger than the character demanded, although they were offering other roles which didn’t interest me. And then in my third audition, I got finalized for Yaaro ke Tashan. Eventually, I came back where my heart was. I did this show for one year in 2016. Then in 2017 I took a break again and just enjoyed my teenage but at the same time, I even signed a few shows from which I got replaced overnight for no reason at all. Which was a very hard time for me. Then in 2018 was offered a role in Naagin, which was a negative role.
I was very scared and a bit skeptical about the role. I was worried whether I’ll be able to do a negative character rather should I do it at the point where my career was just starting. But I overcame these thoughts and decided to do it. On my first day at the shoot, I was very nervous because there were all the crew and the other actors as well. But my nervousness vanished when all the crew and co-actors clapped after I gave my first shot. It was a very proud moment for me and that cheered me up a lot. Then I was offered a negative role in Kundali Bhagya. My performance in the show received so much love and praise from the audience that my track got extended. My character originally had only a two-month track which later got extended to 8-9 months. After which the show’s fans still wanted me to make a comeback on that show and I did do that. Later I was again offered a role in another Balaji show Bepanah Pyaar which I could do only for a month because by that time I had to go to the Bigboss House. After Bigboss I did music videos like Gal karke, Lehenga, Relation which have crossed more than 100 million views each and have received immense love from everyone.
