Pandya Store actress Shrashti Maheshwari reveals she is not being called for the shoots; says, “I want to take up other projects”
Actress Shrashti Maheshwari who is known for her role as Anita in the show Pandya Store has been missing from the show for quite some time. During a recent interview with BT, the actress talked about it and said, “I’m not being called for shoot since two months. The makers renewed my contract recently and I was happy about the same and was pumped up for the upcoming track, however, to my disappointment, from the same month itself, the number of my shoot dates decreased considerably. I last shot for Shiva- Raavi track, that too, for two days in a month”.
She added, “I’m an independent girl and want to take care of my expenses all by myself. I can’t even take up another show as the industry feels that I’m a part of ‘Pandya Store’. What they don’t know is, that I’m not even shooting for the show. Casting directors don’t reach out to me for work considering that my show is on-air. The makers of ‘Pandya Store’ has clearly told me that there’s not much left for me to do in the show”.
Talking about the uncertainties in an actor’s life, Shrashti added, “I feel the makers should help their actors in such situation by either giving them another project under their banner or spread the word about their actors’ availability in their circle, so that the actor gets work and can survive in a city like Mumbai. I’m blessed to have a supportive family but my inherent personality is that of being independent and in such situations things really get difficult”.
