‘Manisha Koirala is an inspiration’
I see myself as a successful person doing wonderful films and being associated with great actors
Former Miss Nepal runner-up Sanyukta Timsina makes her Indian TV debut with 2025 Jaane Kya Hoga Aagey. Excerpts from a chat:
Please tell us a little bit about your background.
I come from a very strict police family. My dad is a retired inspector general of Nepal and my mom is a homemaker. I was given the freedom to pursue whatever career I wanted. And my family supported me when I told them I wanted to get into entertainment.
Where do you see yourself in the coming years?
I see myself as a successful person doing wonderful films and being associated with great actors.
How did you land this show?
I was looking out for something that was exciting. Fortunately, I happened to get a call from Optimystix. After multiple auditions and look tests I was chosen as the lead for the show.
Is Manisha Koirala an inspiration since she is from Nepal as well?
Manisha Koirala is certainly an inspiration for anyone coming from Nepal. Everybody from Nepal who wants to make it big in Mumbai looks up to her.
