BIOGRAPHY: Geetanjali Singh
Geetanjali Singh, a model, and actress best recognized for her work on Hindi television is probably best known to viewers for playing Kavya in the hit Million Dollar Girl Channel V series. She has also been in shows like Tumhari Pakhi and Naadaaniyan, as well as appeared in commercials for well-known companies like Nikon, Amazon, and Ajio.
Speaking of her journey, she claims that acting was never a viable career choice or a childhood dream. All I know is that I preferred performing arts like dance, sketching, and skits to academic subjects. I’ve never considered a career in acting. I experienced that only after I started working as an air hostess. Singh went to an audition with a few of my coworkers. I got chosen for advertisements, which surprised me.
I’ve known that the life of an actor is unpredictable, Geetanjali adds in reference to her struggle and how it formed her as a person. I reduced my wasteful spending as a result and saved money. People frequently claim that a person’s career will be greatly impacted by struggle. I’ve always thought that because fighting is the best way to learn, we should never glorify struggle.
