Sapna Thakur’s journey as an actor

In a candid conversation with us, the Kyun Rishton Mein Katti Batti actor Sapna Thakur recently opened up about what her journey of becoming an actor looked like. According to Sapna, barriers need to be broken at home first, before anywhere else. Sharing her experience, she revealed that the woman behind her success today is none other than her own mother, who she said is also her idol. Hailing from the city of Chandigarh, Sapna encountered a lot of unwanted commentaries around the lines of how pursuing an acting career might not be a good idea due to her gender and how being in the industry could be extremely unsafe too. However, the actor stated that despite such conservative concerns of society about the risks of being a girl in the media industry, her mother supported her every step of the way. Sapna also added that her mother raised and treated her no different than how she would have done it if she was her son.
