MUMBAI
Popular actress Akanksha Puri is opening up about what it takes to survive in the fast-paced world of show business. While promoting her new music video, Saadi Farmaish, the star shared that the secret to a long career is the ability to change and stay modern.
Puri pointed to actors Akshaye Khanna and Bobby Deol as perfect examples of success. She noted that both stars are currently delivering the best work of their lives. According to Puri, these actors are at their absolute peak because they were willing to reinvent themselves rather than sticking to the old ways of doing things.
“You have to update yourself,” Puri explained during her Mumbai press event. She warned that many people she started with have disappeared from the spotlight because they refused to adapt. Whether it is fashion, hairstyles, or professional mindsets, she believes staying ready for any opportunity is the only way to win. She stressed that if a performer isn’t prepared when a call comes, the role will quickly go to someone else.
Currently, Puri is enjoying her own success with her latest song alongside Ashmit Patel. The track is winning hearts for its soulful, contemporary feel. However, her message to her peers remains clear that is to stay relevant, one must embrace the future with an open mind. By looking at the “second innings” of stars like Deol and Khanna, she proves that in Bollywood, your best days can always be ahead of you.
