In a short span of three years Hansika Motwani has evolved from a child artiste to a grown-up girl.
There has been secrecy surrounding the leading lady of Himesh Reshammiya ’s first film as an actor Aap Ka Suroor . So far the heroine was being promoted as a newcomer named Ria. Now, it is learnt that the girl is none other than Hansika Motwani, the child artiste who was seen in a TV serial and few films just a few years back.
As a child artiste Hansika has acted in films like Koi Mil Gaya , Escape From Taleban , Jaago and Hum Kaun Hai . She was also part of television serial, ‘Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi’. By the end of 2004 Hansika took a break and miraculously re-emerged as a fully-grown girl in 2007 with a role in a south Indian film.
Although she was also cast opposite Mithun Chakraborty’s son Mimoh in an action movie, the film got stuck mid-way.
It was early this year, Hansika appeared for the audition of Himesh’s film ‘Aap Ka Suroor’. She cleared the grueling auditions, passed the dance tests and acting tests to clinch the lead role in the film.
Surprisingly, she was being referred to as Ria by the film’s makers. It is now revealed that Ria is just her name in the film.
