MUMBAI: Choti Sarrdaarni is currently one of the most popular shows. It has made a fan base for itself. It stars Nimrit Ahluwalia in the lead role opposite Avinesh Rekhi. Nimrit portrays the role of Meher while Avinesh is seen as Sarabjit.
During a conversation with a leading entertainment portal, Nimrit revealed how TV happened to her. When asked how she bagged the role of Meher, the actress told Pinkvilla that her journey was not that smooth. “I had moved to Bombay in November 2018 because I was shortlisted for a film that Mukesh Chhabra was casting for. TV was not in my mind but I started auditioning rigorously and I went for it everywhere. I had gone to this audition to 4 Lions because I had liked the script. I think after that it circulated that there is also this other girl. In February 2019, I was called for this audition where I had not read the script and was not in the correct attire that Mehr was supposed to have. I was not ready for the audition. I just walked in and did whatever. When I came out, the creative briefed me about it which got me excited. Luckily, they gave me a callback,” said the actress.

Nimrit added, “I think most girls on TV are petite girls, with big eyes, fairer, big lips and I think I was the complete opposite. Then I struggled to convince people on top that I can do this part.”
