Deepika
Singh
who
became
a
household
name
after
starring
as
Sandhya
in
Diya
Aur
Baati
Hum,
recently
opened
up
to
Pinkvilla
about
the
ongoing
debate
about
favouritism
in
the
entertainment
industry.
The
actress
who
took
a
break
from
work
to
embrace
motherhood
also
spoke
about
her
comeback,
facing
rejections
among
other
things.
Deepika
revealed,
“I
have
got
both
my
shows
after
giving
auditions
relentlessly.
For
Diya
Aur
Baati
Hum,
I
have
given
auditions
for
almost
a
month
non-stop,
after
which
I
got
selected,
signed
the
contract,
and
started
shooting.
I
had
no
contacts
in
the
industry
whatsoever,
so
auditions
were
my
way
of
grabbing
a
good
opportunity.
I
think
everything
lies
with
the
channel,
producers
also
play
a
part
as
they
recommend
someone.
However,
I
feel
that
getting
a
role
is
all
based
on
'talent'.
I
don't
think
that
people
who
don't
have
any
skills
and
talents
will
get
a
good
push.”
She
went
on
to
add,
“An
actor
may
have
the
potential,
and
top-notch
acting
skills,
but
if
he
or
she
does
not
fit
the
makers
or
writer's
imagination
for
a
particular
character,
there's
no
road
ahead.
I
got
selected
for
Sandhya
Rathi
in
Diya
Baati
Aur
Hum,
not
because
I
was
a
phenomenal
actress,
but
the
makers
saw
Sandhiya
in
me.
Whenever
I
get
rejected
for
a
role,
it
does
not
affect
me.
I
get
happy
thinking
that
something
much
better
is
going
to
come
my
way,
if
not
this.”
On
being
quizzed
about
her
TV
comeback,
the
actress
said,
“Several
offers
have
come
my
way,
but
I
haven't
got
something
concrete
and
interesting
that
I
wish
to
take
up.
If
I
get
a
role
that
piques
my
interest,
then
I
would
definitely
do
it.
I
also
have
been
approached
for
reality
shows,
but
I
can't
take
it
up
as
I
love
acting
and
dancing.”
