Shiny Doshi: The best things in my life came unplanned
Shiny Doshi, who has been absent from television since her role in Pandya Store in 2023, reveals that her break was unplanned due to a lack of appealing roles. She cherishes the experience of married life after a life of continuous work and appreciates her husband's support. Shiny Doshi has been away from the small screen for the past couple of years. The actress, who was last seen in Pandya Store (2023), says that the break has been unintentional. 'Nothing exciting has come my way. I got married in 2021 while shooting for Pandya Store and spent the first two years of my marriage working every day. It was only after the show ended that I truly experienced what marriage felt like. My husband has been incredibly supportive. Plus, this break has given me time to reflect, grow and just be myself.' The actress, who has featured in TV shows like Bahu Humari Rajni_Kant and Jamai Raja, is happy with the way her career has shaped up so far. She shares, 'I kept going to television. Once I achieved financial stability, I started understanding and appreciating the craft more deeply. Looking back over the past 13-14 years, I've realised that nothing I planned worked out as expected, but when I let go and surrendered, magic happened. The best things in my life came unplanned.' Shiny Doshi is married. She married Lavesh Khairajani on July 15, 2021. Their wedding ceremony was a close-knit affair attended by just 25 people, including their immediate families and friends. The actress had to follow the norms due to the pandemic in 2021. She had said in an earlier interview, "We couldn't invite many people due to Covid-19 restricitons."

Actor Achint Kaur recently surprised fans and industry colleagues alike by posting a video on Instagram seeking acting and voiceover work. In the clip, she expressed her eagerness to take on projects, both in India and internationally. In an exclusive chat with India Today, Achint opened up about how, due to family commitments, she took work sporadically but was now ready to go all past four-five years, I could not do regular work because my mother was not well. Most of my days were spent with her in hospitals. When she passed away in October, I didn't know what to do because my whole life was dedicated to her. So I started messaging producer friends, casting directors, whoever I knew. But there should also be a role for them to cast me. In the interim, I also realised that the market had changed over the years and there were new people involved now, and we didn't know each other,' Achint actor added that she has always followed a rule to mail and text everyone she knows once a year, but this time, she wanted to do something out of the box. She said, 'I realised times have changed, and I had to reach the maximum people. The first 20 days, I was absolutely scared, my stomach churned, and my heart beat fast at the thought of posting this on social media. I was really scared, but then I came around on Sunday, and finally shot and posted it. I barely spoke to anybody about it as I didn't want someone to tell me something which would make me double-guess.'advertisementSurprised by the overwhelming response to her post, the 'Jamai Raja' actor said that she never expected everyone to take it so mentioned how she did not get even one negative or derogatory comment. Rather, people encouraged her. 'It was so heartwarming. There are so many people who have reached out to my managers, and I am really hopeful that this will lead to some constructive work. I have also opened my window wide as I am open to acting, voice work, ads, social media, and even international projects. There were even people who got me connected to agencies."Achint Kaur recalled how a friend even referred to Neena Gupta's similar post a few years back, when she suggested doing this. The actor said she told her friend about wanting to do something drastic, and they mentioned how Neena's action led to her getting some substantial work. When asked if an actor's ego can ever become a hindrance to seeking work, Kaur said, "Honestly, it's not just about actors, but every human being is shy about asking. As I mentioned, I have been practicing this on a personal level for 30 years. This time it was different because I posted on a social media platform. Yes, I was terrified about doing it, but the way people reciprocated, I am so touched."Known for her roles in shows like 'Saaya,' 'Banegi Apni Baat,' 'Saaya,' 'Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi,' and 'Kahaani Ghar Ghar Kii,' among others, Achint Kaur was last seen in JioCinema film 'Ghudchadi.'Must Watch
