For twenty years, I lived in the world of architecture and interior design—designing spaces, shaping light, and creating harmony. Architecture taught me discipline, proportion, and vision. Yet, deep within, I carried a longing for storytelling. At the age of forty, I chose to listen to that voice and step onto the stage, not as a trained actor, but as a self‑learned one. My debut in Ratanpur in 2017 opened the doors to cinema, and since then I have been blessed to perform in more than twenty‑five Gujarati films and ten web series. Each role has been a new structure to inhabit, from Maya in Bhram, a woman grappling with dementia, to a Police Commissioner in Hun Iqbal, to the warmth of family dramas like Hu Ane Tu.
Acting gave me freedom, vulnerability, and voice, while advertising campaigns for UNICEF, Fortune Foods, Adani Realty, and many others allowed me to connect with audiences in yet another way. My journey proves that creativity has no boundaries and passion has no age. Architecture gave me the foundation; theatre gave me the soul. Together, they remind me—and I hope they remind you—that it is never too late to reinvent yourself and leave a mark.
