Miss India 2003, Nikita Anand is beginning her Bollywood career with an offbeat film.
Even though Nikita has always been a movie buff, she never actually dreamed of a career in Bollywood because she wasn’t sure if she could act. So, after coming to limelight in 2003, Nikita kept herself busy with mere anchoring and show-hosting assignments.
Now, four years after she first tasted fame, Nikita is making her Bollywood debut in Prakash Jha’s production titled Dil Dosti Etc .
In the film, Nikita plays Prerna, a city-bred girl who comes from a rich family and has a very modern outlook towards life.
Nikita says working in her first Bollywood movie has taught her a lot. She understood the nitty-gritty of filmmaking and understood her own strengths and limitations as an actor.
In fact, Prakash Jha seems pretty impressed by Nikita’s work in the film. He calls her "the new surprise package for Bollywood".
‘Dil Dosti Etc’ is set to release on September 28.
