Old Photos Stir Up Emotions
A familiar face on the small screen, Rashami Desai has been revisiting her early days of late. She recently took to social media to share a set of strikingly beautiful and stylish old pictures with her followers — and her emotional state of mind was hard to miss as she posted them.
Speaking from the heart, the actress admitted that as a little girl she had no clue where fate would eventually carry her. Yet one thing was certain — that ‘little Rashami’ never let the confidence and spark inside her fade away.
Grateful For Every Lesson and Hardship
Looking back on her long journey, she warmly thanked every lesson learnt, every high and low, the struggles she faced and the blessings she received from God. According to her, the position she has reached today owes a great deal to all of these experiences from the past.
A TV Career That Began With ‘Ravan’
Tracing Rashami Desai's career, she stepped into the world of Hindi television in 2006 with the serial ‘Ravan’. The role of ‘Tapasya’ in the 2000s superhit show ‘Uttaran’ then turned her into a household name.
Her appeal was never limited to serials alone. She was also seen in a notable role in Salman Khan's film ‘Dabangg 2’. On reality television too, she left a strong mark — through big shows such as ‘Bigg Boss 13’, ‘Khatron Ke Khiladi 6’, ‘Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa 5’ and ‘Nach Baliye 7’. Now 40 years old, Rashami was last seen in the popular show ‘Wagle Ki Duniya’.
Speaking Her Mind on Theatre
Beyond TV and films, Rashami has more recently carved out a name for herself in the world of theatre and stage plays. Talking about the plight of theatre artists, she had said that in our country, those who perform in plays do not get the respect and recognition they truly deserve. In her view, theatre remains the most underrated medium even today.
She explained that a theatre actor toils hard day and night and stays happy by working together like one small family. Such artists, she noted, need no outsider's approval or praise for their craft. And even when they happen to fail, their fellow performers are always ready to hold their hand. Rashami believes there is no better way to make a fresh start and keep learning in life than theatre, which is exactly why society ought to hold these artists in far greater esteem.
