Palak Tiwari never wanted to become a television actor: ‘I think I never stood a chance’

Palak Tiwari, who made her Bollywood debut with ‘Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan’, has opened up about why she did not pursue a career in television like her mother, actor Shweta Tiwari. In a recent interview, Palak said that she believes entering the television industry would have been comparatively easier for her, but she chose to focus on films instead.

Speaking with Mastiii, Palak said, ‘I knew that I wanted to do movies. I feel my mom did TV for so many years and she has handled and done everything so well. There is nothing left for me to do. And there would anyways be comparison, but I think I never stood a chance in TV.’

She added, ‘Movies for me was comparatively a bit difficult to enter, but in TV, my mom has a legacy. So that was very easy for me, I got a lot of offers. But I didn’t want to do it.’

Talking about working in a Salman Khan starrer, the actor said, ‘I got lucky, but I never expected to get a Salman Khan film.’

Shweta Tiwari made her acting debut in 1999 and became a household name as she featured as Prerna in the popular soap opera ‘Kasautii Zindagii Kay’.
