Exclusive: Heeramandi’s Shruti Sharma aka Saima on her father giving her 2 years to prove herself in the industry, says ‘He wanted me to come back after that and get married’

Like I said, if you are an actor, medium doesn't matter. A lot of people, they say like, oh, she's from TV. I don't know why this perception is there that, oh, they categorize you as a television artist. And I think that was the only challenge which I faced. And there is no difference between television acting and, you know, other acting.

Actually, the basic challenge is the mindset. Like I said, if you are an actor, medium doesn't matter. But in our industry, it matters somewhere. A lot of people, they say like, oh, she's from TV. I don't know why this perception is there that, oh, they categorize you as a television artist. But trust me, television teaches you a lot. And I think that was the only challenge which I faced. Not that much, but somewhere it was a challenge that I had this thought in mind that I have to convince people that if you are a good actor, medium never matters. You're just an actor. And there is no difference between television acting and, you know, other acting. It's us which we, like... I think somewhere the actors also they create sometimes that difference and sometimes the directors, the writers on the television set they create that difference but it is in our hand. Right now everyone wants to see genuine acting. I think that was the only challenge which I faced otherwise I loved every bit of Heeramandi, I loved every bit of Saima and I'm really happy that you know like Saima has been seen in 17 countries and that has made me super super happy.
