How She Got Selected For Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai?
Hina revealed that she started her career from Yeh Rishta Kya Khelata Hai and it is her first show. She said, "I got selected from Delhi, where I was studying. One of my friends told me about the auditions for Yeh Rishta. The makers auditioned before in Chandigarh and other cities, then they came to Delhi and I just gave the audition. Actually, I wanted to become a journalist but all of sudden I gave audition for acting."
Hina Never Faced Camera Before!
She says, "I have never learnt acting before and never faced camera before. I got selected and came here. Then Rajan Shah sir told me to come over. I gave a couple of look tests. The channel liked me and then I got selected for yeh rishta."
About Her Character Akshara
About her character Akshara, Hina had said, "When I started as Akshara, she was an unmarried girl who was very scared, nervous, family oriented and doesn't go out alone. She's loved and pampered by everyone in the family. She is born after three generation."
Hina Says…
"Her journey was about how she faces all the problems - she doesn't want to get married or wants to leave the house. Finally, a guy comes to see her! It is a story about marriage after love which happens in her life. She meets a guy and likes him and then she gets married."
‘I Have Really Lived This Character’
She adds, "To be very honest, the way Akshara has felt exactly the same thing I felt in her real life. I have really lived this character. Whatever happens with girl ones she gets married, I have actually faced all that because I am not close with in-laws, I don't want to be with them or face them (when I was new), I want to go to my myka. Whenever my (onscreen) mom and dad come to meet me, I give them more preference, I want to sit with them and chat with them which is what actually happens in real life."
