Shivangi Joshi is currently working on the show Balika Vadhu 2 as Anandi. However, she sparked to fame with her amazing work in the show Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai. That being said, here’s what she had to say about how she felt upon signing up for the show.
Talking to Bollywood Bubble, Shivangi Joshi said, “Honestly, I didn’t know about Yeh Rishta before I joined. When I got the offer, I gave the audition and on the day of the audition itself, sir (Rajan Shahi) stopped me because he really liked my audition. He asked me to wait and spoke to me.”
She further added, “I still wasn’t sure if I would get the show or not because a look test also happened after that audition and there were 3-4 actresses there for it. So, when I asked my family to tell me a little about Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata, they were so surprised like, ‘Beta Yeh Rishta se offer aaya hai, Hum to ye show pichle 6-7 saal se dekh rahe hain. This is the biggest show on Television,’ and I just didn’t know what they were talking about,”
With that, the actress has also said that she wasn’t into serials back then saying, “Even though I was a part of the industry then and was doing my own TV shows, I used to watch only them and was more of a cartoon person. I used to watch cartoons more than anything else as I was just 17 when I entered YRKKH. I didn’t have much knowledge about serials as I used to watch very limited ones but my family just went crazy when I got the offer. When I got the part, that’s when I understood what YRKKH actually was.” as quoted by Koi Moi.
Apart from Balika Vadhu 2, it’s been confirmed that the actress is all set to become a part of the action reality show Khatron Ke Khiladi 12.
