Deepika Singh is an Indian television actress known for her remarkable roles in various shows. Deepika Singh rose to prominence for her role as Sandhya in the hit television series ‘Diya Aur Baati Hum’. Her character’s journey to become an IAS officer in the show remains one of the most inspiring narratives in television history. Now as Deepika returns to the TV circuit after 2019 with the Colors TV show ‘Mangal Lakshmi’.
In the series, Deepika will essay the role of a rooted, strong but reserved homemaker Mangal, and this is quite different from what her fans have seen on the screen.
Deepika Singh explained why she took a 5-year break from television and revealed the perception the TV industry has towards her. Because the actress was not ready for long time commitments as she had taken up training for classical dance and wanted to prioritise her exams.
Talking about taking a sabbatical from the small screen, Deepika shared, “Since childhood, I was in awe of classical dancing, I wanted to be an actor, so I did theatre, then Diya Aur Baati Hum happened so fast, but during that time I realized that I wanted to learn classical dance”.
She continued “I started learning it in 2014 and got quite involved. After that I became a mother, my interest in classical dancing increased, and I took a sabbatical. Diya Aur Baati Hum gave me the financial independence to choose what I wanted to do in life. I was earning even without doing TV, now I am visharad (expert) in Odissi dance, so I wanted to do something on TV and luckily this show happened.”
