Kanishka Soni quitting showbiz for Hollywood: After a TV show ends, actors need to start from scratch and Bollywood is full of nepotism
She says, “I have enjoyed being part of a number of TV shows, music videos and many commercials back in India. I had many offers in hand but later when I experienced that there is no guarantee of a TV show even running for 3 months, and you have to once again start from the scratch. I lost trust in the Indian TV industry. I was so disturbed reading about nepotism in bollywood so finally I decided to pursue a career here in Hollywood. Infact, I had one TV fiction and also a digital series. But I was so confused that I refused.”
Kanishka, who has been a part of TV shows, Diya Aur Baati Hum, Kullfi Kumarr Bajewala and Devi Adi Parashakti, is happy to be part of her first Hollywood project.
She adds, “I’m really blessed that finally I’m living my dreams and got my first project. I’m essaying a beautiful character in a film directed by a popular director here in Canada, and the name of the project is ‘Choice Is Yours’, and working in this project has boosted my confidence that I will do good ahead.”
Kanishka, who is also a singer by profession, has also performed with well-known singers like Harrdy Sandhu and the late singer, Sidhu Moosewala.
