Television actor Ashnoor Kaur began her career at the young age of four, portraying the character of Prachi in the show Jhansi Ki Rani. In a recent interview with Hauterrfly, she revealed that by the age of six, she was already working up to 30 hours and also spoke about her struggles with body image issues during her early years in the industry.
The Bigg Boss 19 contestant revealed, "I’ve shot for 30 hours continuously. I was six at the time, and I was doing a show called Shobha Somnath Ki. I was so tired that I couldn’t function at all. My mother suggested that I take a nap for a couple of hours in the vanity. The production guys waited outside while I napped for safety, and then I started again."
She also opened up about struggling with body image issues, recalling how she once resorted to an extreme water-only diet to maintain a certain look for her show. Ashnoor revealed that she even fainted on set but chose not to disclose to anyone that she had not been eating.
"I fainted on set once, but I didn’t tell anybody that I wasn’t eating," said Ashnoor.
Ashnoor Kaur started her acting carer with Jhansi Ki Rani. Kaur instantly became a household name as a popular child artiste. She featured in popular TV shows like Saath Nibhaana Saathiya, Devon Ke Dev Mahadev, among others.
Her breakthrough as a lead actor came with the role of Mini Khurana in Sony TV’s Patiala Babes (2018–2020), which earned her widespread recognition and made her a household name. In addition to television, she has also appeared in Bollywood films, playing small yet notable roles in Sanju and Manmarziyaan.
