“Entrepreneurship was a path I wanted to pursue. Business was always in my blood, and this dream has been with me for quite some time now. Acting happened by chance. I was only 16 when I moved to Mumbai, but while pursuing my acting career, I had this business virus in me, to do something in the world out there and that has finally happened. So, I felt it’s time I tell everyone that acting, for now, is going on a break as I pursue my other dream.”
The telly actress became a household name after featuring in Ekta Kapoor’s Balaji Telefilms’ productions’ ‘Kkusum’ in 2003. She further gained massive popularity for portraying the iconic role of Kallavati in ‘Laagi Tujhse Lagan’. She was also seen in super hit shows like “Naagin” and “Balveer”.

Further talking about the kind of content is these days on television, Aashka said, “Television reaches the masses and it’s bigger than other industries that exist. In terms of content, as an actor, that’s never in your hands. In my case, it isn’t necessarily that, it’s also the fact that I wanted to do something else.”
Aashka along with her husband has now moved to Goa. On whether she will return to showbiz or not, the actress said, “For now, it is a goodbye. Whether this sabbatical is temporary or permanent, time will tell, but I know that I am not taking up anything in acting in the coming future.
