Nia Sharma is one of the most popular stars of the television industry. The actress successfully created a mark for herself on her own. The actress had been through a roller coaster ride and had work hard to reach where she is now.
Speaking of that, in the latest interview, Nia got candid as she talked about her initial days of struggle in the industry. She opened up about not having work for several months after her show, Ek Hazaaron Mein Meri Behna Hai, went off air. She also shared that it was a difficult time as she was all alone and didn’t earn a single penny.
Taking to a radio host Siddarth Kannan, Nia shared, “When I came to this industry, I was all by myself. I was fresh from Ek Hazaaron Mein Meri Behna Hai, which was the show that made me. Uske baad poora ek saal ka gap tha.”
She further shared that after the show went off air, she didn’t earn a single penny for over nine months. Nia said, “So after Ek Hazaaron Mein Meri Behna Hai till Jamai Raja, there was a nine-month gap. I was all alone in Mumbai. I had no friends because obviously, I was new. I stayed in my shell. I worked on myself, I started learning belly dancing. Woh jo 9 mahine guzar gaye and I realized ki koi kaam nahi tha, kuch nahi tha, not a single penny I had earned, no friends… I think woh ek period tha jo mujhe dobara nahi jeena tha (I never want to relive those nine months, when I had no work, no friends and did not earn a single penny).”
Talking about her work right now, Nia Sharma shared that she gets work in the form of brand collaborations, music videos, and other things. For the unversed, she was recently seen in Bigg Boss OTT, but she left the house within two days. Besides this, she also recently starred in the music video for the song ‘Do Ghoont’.
