Balika Vadhu actress Avika Gor on playing characters beyond her age: If Vidya Balan can play Amitabh Bachchan’s mother, there is no reason for me to say no to anything

Avika Gor has impressed us with her performance as Anandi in Balika Vadhu. She was appreciated for her role in the show and later we saw her playing Roli in Sasural Simar Ka. She has been working since then in the TV industry and South industry as well without any break in between. The actress spoke about working non-stop in an interview with ETimes. She said, "I did take a break for about a year in 2017 after my stint on 'Sasural Simar Ka' ended and before taking up 'Laado 2 Veerpur Ki Mardani'. It was because I wanted to be sure if I really wanted to act, as back then I seemed more inclined towards dancing and direction. During the transformation phase, too, I had considered taking a long break before returning as a totally new person. However, I am glad I didn't do that, as that would have affected my connection with the audience. "

She also said that even though she had been working at an early age, that did not affect her childhood. Avika shared, "Success so early on in life can get to your head, but fortunately, I have been surrounded by people, especially my parents, who have kept me grounded. I never felt that I missed out on a normal childhood as I attended school as well as did what I liked acting and dancing." Avika Gor also had an amazing physical transformation recently. She lost 13 kilos in the last few months. She said, "Physical transformation happened because I focussed on changing from within. Television had made me extremely comfortable with being in the spotlight. I somehow felt that even though I was not giving my 100 per cent, people still loved me. I had this perception that people liked me the way I was, so there was no need to do anything extra. I was doing good professionally, but I wasn't happy. The reason was that I wasn't giving my 100 per cent, not just physically, but mentally as well. For instance, I used to attempt screenplay writing, but then, I stopped paying attention to it. However, on my birthday (June 30), it struck me that I owe my audience my 100 per cent."

She also spoke about playing characters beyond her age. "Acting is all about becoming someone else. And if Vidya Balan can play Amitabh Bachchan's mother in 'Paa', there is no reason for me to say no to anything. These days, many actresses experiment and take the age part as a challenge. It's just that I got to do that at an early age, " she said.
