Vaishnavi: Making waves

Ranchi, June 18: She is all of 9 and already making waves on the small screen.

Meet Vaishnavi, a child celebrity from the city, who is Tick-Tick in Piya Ka Ghar, Appu in Son Pari, Maansi in Karishma and Bebbo in Shararat.

The Class V student, Vaishnavi is ready to face the camera anytime from any angle.

In fact, she, like a seasoned actor, knows well which angle will be comfortable for her, and from which angle she will look good.

?Facing the camera is not a big deal for me as I am born bold,? says the confident artiste.

Though acting keeps her quite busy, this student of Srimaa Vidhyalaya in Mumbai never neglects studies.

She is the favourite of all in her school and her friends, teachers, seniors all feel proud to have the child actor among them.

?All the credit for what I am today goes to my mother and uncle,? says Vaishnavi.

?My mother takes me for the shooting and she waits on the set till my shoot ends,? adds the hard-working girl.

Vaishnavi has an inborn talent.

?The way she speaks, walks, expresses herself and her style ? all make her a complete package to enter into the glamour world,? says K.L. Sharma, Vaishnavi?s uncle, who is working as the senior manager in communication department in Ranchi.

As Vaishnavi?s elder brother Rohan Sharma was already working in TV serials, so it became easier for her to make an entry.

She got her first break in Shaka Laka Boom ? a TV serial on Star Plus ? when she was only five years old. She was named Sweety in the soap.

?She is a born actor and we all feel proud of her,? says Sushil Kumar Sharma, the proud father, who is a civil contractor.

?She is the most experienced child artiste of India today as she has completed her 700 episodes in almost 10 serials.?

Swimming, cycling, dancing and playing cricket and badminton are her pass-time.
