Mtv teen, American drama series

Mumbai, June 23 Former beauty queen Apeksha Porwal makes her acting debut with the digital project "Undekhi".As a child she never dreamt of becoming an actor. However, she was always curious about acting. "I started my acting training before (participating in) Miss India. It was after a workshop with Neeraj Kabi and another with Atul Mongia that I really got into it. So, I enrolled to a nine-month method-acting diploma programme," said the Miss Diva 2017 second runner-up."I think that the acting course that really changed my life. It made me certain that this is where I belong and helped me to get to know the craft better. I also did a comedy play. We did several shows for that and it was one of the most amazing experiences that I had," she added.She revealed that participating in a beauty pageant was something that she wanted to do since childhood."As a kid, I used to watch Miss India on TV with my parents and my sister, and we used to all dream that one day I will be there and I will wear the crown. In fact, I did my first pageant, MTV Teen Diva, in 2009 and I won it. I won the title of Miss Teen India International 2009 and I represented India at Miss Teen International 2009 in Chicago," she said.Years later, Apeksha went through the long process of auditioning and said she went through many of them before landing a role in "Undekhi"."As a newcomer, I went through the regular process of auditioning. I went to many auditions. For my debut, I was looking for a role which would let me push my boundaries as an actor, and I think I am very lucky that I got to start my career with a show like 'Undekhi'," she said."Even when I just read the audition script, I fell in love with it. A few weeks after the first round of audition, they called me back for a second round without make-up because the role is such. It was almost after one year of auditioning that I got a call from the production house saying that they wanted me for the role. It was a long wait but totally worth it," Apeksha added.The first teaser of "Undekhi" was recently released. It starts with a group of policemen sailing through the Sundarbans to investigate a dead body. On reaching they are informed that the body is two-three days old and has been eaten by wild animals after his death."The teaser of 'Undekhi' is finally out, and I am quite excited because it's been more than a year since we finished shooting. The teaser in itself is quite intriguing. I can't wait to share more about my role and the series, which is based on true events," Apeksha said.( With inputs from IANS )
