Prachi Desai:-

Born on September 12, 1988, Prachi Desai took to acting very young, and was a star when she was all of 18 years old!. Height. 5' 4''.

Her television debut with the serial Kasamh Se made her a familiar household name, and her innocent girl-next-door looks along with that angelic smile quickly established her as a familiar face on Indian television.

Born in Surat, Gujarat, Prachi studied in a boarding school and was just finishing junior college when her pictures were sent for an audition to Balaji Telefilms, where she was selected. Her character as Bani Walia opposite Ram Kapoor got her rave reviews and only two years later she landed her first big screen role in the Farhan Akhtar film Rock On!!. Her role as Farhan Akhtar’s demure but sensible wife made audiences realise her potential as an actor on the big screen and she could finally break the mould that television actors are generally cast into.

After that there has been no looking back for Prachi. The actor has worked in more films than she has TV shows, with her latest movie (Bol Bachchan) proving to be a superhit at the box office. Her upcoming projects include I, Me aur Main opposite John Abraham and Chitrangada Singh, and Rock the Shaadi opposite Abhay Deol.

Of late Prachi has been coming into her own and has quit the Miss Goody Two Shoes image with sizzling, bold scenes with Emraan Hashmi in Once Upon a Time in Mumbaai, for instance. Now she wants more than just the usual birthday gifts – she wants love, of course, and a study year in Princeton University. Though we may not be able to give her that, on her 24th birthday we wish her luck and all happiness in life, and hope that she has nothing short of a blast on her special day!

KBC-6: Prachi Desai praises Amitabh Bachchan

Big B is not only the favourite of common people, Bollywood celebrities like him equally. Amitabh Bachchan's presence on the TV show 'Kaun Banega Crorepati' has made the serial popular among the Bollywood celebs too, and it seems Prachi Desai is one of them.

The actress, who is celebrating her birthday today, has tweeted about her fascination for the show. She tweets, "Just can't get enough of kaunbanegacrorepati !! *Addicted."

When somebody asked about the reason behind her praise for the show, she replied, "The very reason is Sr Bachchan."

Prachi Desai Birthday on September 12th

Prachi Desai was lately in news for her comment on star kids also, where she had said that star kids get good opportunities on platter.

Coming from the TV background, Prachi gained fame for her act in 'Rock On!'

"Star kids are offered films on a platter: Prachi Desai"

Prachi Desai has taken some time to sink her feet firmly in Bollywood. But she believes destiny is on her side now

You rose to fame with Ekta Kapoor's TV soap; how did you handle the adulation that you got suddenly?
In the first two years that I made it big on TV, I had no clue what was happening. I was very young and missed doing normal things like going to college or hanging out with my friends because I worked all day long. When I started getting popular, I was very happy, but I was left with no time to enjoy it. In television, fame comes really fast. If your show works, your career is made. But it was also something that disturbed me. Initially, I got excited about it, but eventually it started getting to me because I couldn't do anything normal anymore. But I learnt how to handle it eventually.

Ekta Kapoor once called you her 'blue-eyed baby'. What's your equation with her today?
(Laughs) Really? When I started working, I didn't know her; I had only heard about her. She would give me advice. And after that we became friends. Also, her mother Shobhaji offered me moral support. I know that Ekta is always going to be there for me and vice-versa. Professionally, she's extremely busy and so am I. I'm happy that she's doing fabulously well for herself. But we don't discuss work with each other.

Like you, Vidya Balan started her career with television. Now she's reigning the silver screen with her remarkable performances. Do you want to follow her footsteps?
(Smiles) Vidya is one of my favourite actors and I think she just brilliant at everything she does. I idolize her, but I don't think I can model my career on somebody else.

If you are offered a good TV soap, would you take the offer?
TV is a medium that will remain very close to my heart, but right now going back is a complete no-no. I bid goodbye to TV when I did my first film, Rock On!!

How has your journey in Bollywood been so far?
I will always be grateful to Ritesh Sidhwani, Farhan Akhtar and Abhishek Kapoor for giving me Rock On!! I was very young then and I didn't have many friends in the industry. I don't think anybody took me seriously at that time because they must have thought I was just a one-film wonder. Thankfully, after my debut, I bagged Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai, and then Bol Bachchan happened. But I will always have to struggle, since I am not an industry kid. Outsiders don't fit in as well as star kids do.

In Detail...
We outsiders are not given as many chances; it's very rare to bag a great film. But star kids are offered films on a platter, even though most of the time their films flop! With all due respect, I think I am honest when I say it's always going to be difficult for outsiders.

How do you plan to deal with this kind of competition around?
If I start taking any kind of competition seriously, I'd be out of this industry in a month. Random things are written and spoken about us, and if you start thinking too much, it's never going to work out. At some point, you have to cut off.

Are you wary of all the back-biting and bitching in the industry?
(Smiles) I don't let such things affect me. Initially, when you hear someone say something bad about you, you will react or take it in a certain way, depending on your personality. After a point, you have to stop thinking and reacting to it. I'd get hassled and disturbed, but I realized that there is no point. You are up alone against everybody. You can't go around town explaining yourself to people, even if the rumours are not true.

Prachi’s hooked on to Zumba:

Post her return from a long holiday in the US, Prachi Desai seems to be a changed gal. She has returned with a new passion: Zumba.

It is learnt that a friend introduced the actress to the Latin American dance and fitness form during her visit there. And not only did Prachi find it a fun dance form, but she also practised it regularly to stay in shape. If that's not enough, she has also acquired a new collection of music to play while she indulges in her Zumba sessions back home. According to a friend of the actress, "Prachi has become addicted to the dance form and ensures that she takes time out for her sessions every day without fail. She's looking and feeling great ever since she's got hooked on to it during her visit to the US, so she sees no reason to not continue practising it at home while in Mumbai."

"Prachi Desai’s on a holiday"

Actor Prachi Desai hasn’t taken a break for a long time now. After the rigorous shooting schedule of her last film Bol Bachchan and hectic promotional activities, Prachi needed to relax and have some time for herself. So, it was a welcome change when Prachi was invited to attend the India Independence parade in New Jersey. The actor took the opportunity and has made it into a pleasure trip for her.

“Since, Prachi had to be in New Jersey for the Independence parade, she turned it into a proper holiday. The actor at present is travelling across USA and visiting places like New York, LA and Las Vegas. She really needed a break and what’s the best way to unwind than travel to see the world. She will return to India by this weekend. After that Prachi will beshooting for her upcoming film projects with John Abraham and another one with Sanjay Dutt,” a source reveals.

Talking about her upcoming films she said, “I take up the best opportunities to showcase my talent. My roles so far have been poles apart and have proved that I’m versatile.” The actor also describes her recent flag bearing role at the parade as an overwhelming experience, “It was an experience to remember, and a wonderful atmosphere. It was a moment of pride, the people were lovely, but most of all it was a huge honour for me. The experience has left a lasting impression on my mind.”
