Raashii Khanna Actor: I ended up pursuing a career in acting

Raashii Khanna recently opened up about her significant career shift, revealing her transition from aspiring to become an IAS officer to achieving success as an actress. Raashii discussed her beliefs about destiny and decisions in life, and revealed that she initially desired a stable job.

Brilliant in studies

Raashii Khanna, hailing from Paschim Vihar in New Delhi, secured admission in Lady Shri Ram College with an impressive 91% in her board exams. She acknowledged being in the front row and consistently coming first in school and university.

Fulfill her father’s dream

Raashii mentioned that her father’s dream was for her to become an IAS officer, and she thought, “Why not?” It is safe. I excel in this subject, so perhaps I will thrive in it. However, God had a different plan and I ended up pursuing a career in acting. The actress also stated, “I was ready to accept whatever destiny had in store for me.” That is precisely what happened as none of my life plans turned out as expected. I aspired to become an IAS officer but unfortunately, it didn’t materialize. In fact, as a child in a middle-class household, you often desire a stable career. That is your pillow. “You seek it out. You search for safety.”

Pursuing a career in acting

Raashii Khanna recognized the challenges that come with pursuing a career in acting. She commented that it has been quite simple for her. Being an actor is extremely challenging. It is the most uncertain job globally because you are unsure if you will secure another movie. You must continue to sit and wait, sometimes for months, even years, for it to happen to you. I have been incredibly fortunate. I have seized opportunities as they have arisen. The actress finished by stating, “I enjoy my job.” I’ve been lucky to have worked with industries that have allowed me to make the movies I have.

Accepted uncertainty of life

She connected with the saying, “Fate guides those who are willing and compels those who are hesitant,” and expressed her willingness to embrace life’s unpredictability. The actress also mentioned that her parents were her strongest supporters, declaring, “They were the ones who mentioned, ‘jaa jee le apni zindagi.’”
