After the Miss India contest in 2004 she took a break for about two years. "I was only 19 then and wanted to finish my studies first before I started my career," says the pretty girl who made her comeback on the ramp in last year's fashion week in Mumbai. "I know a lot of choreographers and they have been telling me to do fashion shows. Though I was looking at television, I decided to return to fashion shows and wait for the right opportunity to start a career on TV." Through her coordinator, Mihika sent her photographs to Smriti's production company Ugraya. "They liked my pictures and called me for an audition. I gave the audition and forgot about it because there is so much competition around. Soon I was asked to appear for a look test. The next thing I learnt was that I was on for the role of Smriti Irani's youngest sister," she smiles. "And after that I started getting lot of offers but I waited for Virrudh to go on air because I see it as the perfect show for my debut." Talking about the character, Mihika says Shreya is a 19-year-old college going girl who is very attached to her sister Vasudha who brought her up in the absence of her mother. "Vasudha is like a mother to Shreya who is innocent, intelligent, knows her mind well but is also bit gullible. She is her dad's pet and like all young and rich girls she is ultra glam and fun loving. As the story takes off I will have my own track with my love interest," she says. While she is excited about her TV debut, if all goes well Mihika will soon be talking about her debut on the silver screen too. "I have auditioned for a film and have been finalised for the lead role. It's a big film, neither mainstream, nor off-beat but somewhere in between. It's a perfect launch pad for me," she gushes. http://www.deccan.com/TV%20Guide/TV%20GuideDescription.asp#D ream%20debut%20for%20Mihika |
