Avneet Kaur recalls how her parents left their life in Punjab for her acting career; says, ‘They’ve struggled a lot for me’
Avneet Kaur, who’s loved and known for her acting skills, often makes headlines and keeps fans entertained. She recently gave an interview to Pinkvilla, where she opened up about her personal as well as professional life. Avneet shared her struggles and recalled how her parents left their life in Punjab to fulfil her dream of becoming an actor.
While sharing how her parents left their house and life in Punjab and came to Mumbai, she said, “That’s a huge risk, I can say. Because we had a life back then, everything was there. My nana-nani, dada-dadi, everybody. We were all living together in a really big family, and everything was sorted, laid out for me, this whole plan, my brother and everything. And then comes Avneet in the middle of it. She chooses to have a dream, she chooses to dare to dream. And then they’re like, ‘We’re in it. If you want it, we’ll give it our best,’ so that I don’t have to regret later that I didn’t give it a genuine try.”
She further said, “They have done so much for me. My dad shifted his whole business and everything. My mom and I, we’ve been living in rented apartments for such a long time, small spaces, all of us together. We have a big house in Punjab, a good home there, and for them to live like that for me, so that I can get a chance at this and somehow become an actress, it means everything.”
Later, Avneet shared, “There are so many things, and I don’t even know how many people’s stories they have heard for me. The stories my mom tells me—that there were times they didn’t even tell me when their hearts were breaking. And for you, that’s a very heartbreaking moment, because we grow up thinking they have all the answers. And when they break, I don’t think there’s anything more heartbreaking than that.”
Avneet expressed love and gratitude for her parents for always supporting her and credited them for her success. She also shared how she now wishes to do acting films.
She said, “I have done a film that was a drama and also a really intense film that people were sharing. Then I did a film that was a little, you know, a family comedy. After that, I got into a film that was a bit emotional, where the character was loving. And now, honestly, I’m looking at, like, I want to I would want to, I’m putting it out there I really want to do an action film. Because I feel like we don’t see many action films. Something like how Rani Ma’am does in Mardaani.”
