Actress Avika Gor, who started her career with the show ‘Balika Vadhu’ and is all set to be next seen in Krishna Bhatt’s ‘1920: Horrors Of The Heart’, is all set to make her debut on OTT with a regional language web series.

The actress, who is going to be seen in the Telugu web series, talks about being part of this remake of a Bengali web series, ‘Indu’, and the challenges of doing it.

She says: “Remakes are always very difficult to pull off because people have already seen the amazing work and people have liked it. So it’s always difficult and a challenge to pull off a remake and this is specifically a thriller which brings in a lot more performance than usual comedy or romance. It is exciting because I have watched both the seasons of the Bengali version of it. Looking forward to being a part of this as Indu in Telugu and other languages.”

Avika is also known for ‘Sasural Simar Ka’, ‘Khatron Ke Khiladi 9’, ‘Khatra Khatra Khatra’, among others.

She adds: “This is my first web series so I’m excited. It’s interesting and I haven’t done any web series. Hotstar is a good medium to do it at a huge level. It’s a big enough platform for me to go ahead with this and this is one of the reasons I chose. Also the production SVF is good, extremely well known for all the Bengali content that they make. The shoot will start in May.”

We seldom come across young actresses who made it big in the small screen as well as silver screen with their amazing acting prowess alone. Balika Vadhu fame Avika Gor is one such gifted talent who didn’t rely just on glamour or stunning looks to become an actress. Her priceless expressions, royal look and fantastic screen presence earned many fans for her in small screen days itself.

But when Avika made her acting debut with the feel good romantic entertainer Uyyala Jampala, she became talk of the town for her girl next door look. She was the biggest crowd puller for the flick and ever since- she has been balancing out academics and showbiz world in ease. But sadly, the actress has taken a shocking decision of bidding goodbye to acting.

Avika expressed her wish of taking break from acting so that she can concentrate on film direction from now on. She is definitely not getting back to small screen again but wants to focus on this challenging skill which would bring her more accolades for sure!

We will have to wait and see whether this bright eyed actress would prove her mettle in directing as well.
