Samridhii Shukla Reflects On 3 Years Of 'YRKKH': 'It Was Hard To Step Into Abhira's Shoes Because I Am An Introvert'

(MENAFN- IANS) Mumbai, Nov 10 (IANS) Actress Samridhii Shukla has opened up about completing three years as Abhira in the popular television show "Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai" (YRKKH).

Reflecting on her journey, the actress shared that initially it was quite hard for her to step into Abhira's shoes because she is an introvert. She also spoke about the challenges and experiences that have shaped her journey with the show. Looking back at her journey, Samridhii said,“I would call this journey beautiful because it has taught me so much. It has helped me grow as not just an actor but as a human being.”

“When you look at three years of working almost every day, you realize the kind of commitment it takes. This journey has made me more strong, dedicated and hardworking. To be honest, it is hard to put the whole experience into words, because it has been so fulfilling. I come to work every day and it feels like a game. The entire team is wonderful and each day is a blessing. I really believe this is a very blessed show and I feel blessed to be a part of it,” she added.

Samridhii went on to state,“Initially, it was quite hard for me to step into Abhira's shoes because I am an introvert. I was a person who would probably not even ask for a glass of water at a guest's or relative's house even if I was thirsty. And then I had to play Abhira who cannot stop talking! So it was a very interesting and challenging transition for me.”

Samridhii Shukla plays the lead role of Abhira Sharma Poddar, an advocate, in the long-running television drama "Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai". She is paired opposite Rohit Purohit, who portrays Armaan Poddar. The show is produced by Rajan Shahi under the banner of Director's Kut Productions and airs on StarPlus.
