Actress Aanchal Khurana, currently winning hearts as Richa in the show Tu Juliet Jatt Di produced by Dreamiyata Entertainment, is not just earning praise for her on-screen presence but also for her thoughtful approach to navigating fame and personal growth.

In an exclusive conversation, she shared insights into handling public attention, staying motivated, and maintaining emotional balance in a demanding industry.

Speaking about the pressures of fame, Aanchal said, 'I think the key is to remind yourself why you started. Public attention is flattering, but it can also be overwhelming. I try to focus on my craft rather than the noise around me.'

On staying motivated during difficult phases, she reflected, 'There are always ups and downs in this industry. What keeps me going is my passion for acting and the belief that every setback is temporary.'

Like many in the spotlight, she admitted to moments of self-doubt. 'Of course, I have experienced self-doubt. I think it is natural. What matters is how you respond to it. I try to channel that doubt into working harder and improving myself.'

Maintaining a personal life amid hectic schedules is another challenge. 'I consciously make time for myself and my loved ones. Even simple things like spending a quiet evening at home help me disconnect from work.'

Family and friends, she emphasized, are her biggest support system. 'They keep me grounded. No matter what happens professionally, they remind me of who I truly am.' Addressing criticism, both from critics and social media, Aanchal said, 'I believe in taking constructive feedback seriously, but I do not let negativity affect me. You have to develop a thick skin in this field.' She also highlighted the importance of self-care. 'For me, self-care includes meditation, reading, and sometimes just taking a break from everything. It helps me maintain a balanced mindset.'

Daily routines play a role in boosting her confidence. 'I do practice affirmations. Starting the day with positive thoughts makes a big difference.' On ensuring that her work does not define her entirely, she shared, 'Acting is a big part of my life, but it is not my entire identity. I have interests and relationships outside of work that keep me grounded.'

Reflecting on the biggest lesson fame has taught her so far, Aanchal concluded, 'Fame is temporary, but your values and character stay with you. Staying authentic is the most important thing.'
