Sonali Phogat, from Bigg Boss 14 is all set to move to Mumbai to pursue her career in acting. Sonali who entered the show as a wild card entry is looking for a house in Mumbai. In an interview with BT Sonali shared her future plans and said, “Yes, I want to pursue acting and do more work here. There are a few offers that are coming my way, let’s see. I want to do good roles with good people in the industry. Since childhood, I wanted to be an actor and I did a few roles, but later, I didn’t get too many opportunities and I even got busy with my political career. Now, I want to get back to acting”
When asked how does she plan to balance her acting and political career she said, “It will be difficult and the responsibilities will increase, but kuch paane ke liye kuch mehnat toh karni padti hai. I also believe that once a person dreams and wishes to do something, one can always do it because their passion drives them towards it”
So why did she quit acting, “I got into politics in 2008 and the people in my party knew about my interest in acting and I was a model, too. But later, my priority became politics and I gave less time to acting. However, I have always been an artiste at heart. So, I tried to balance things even then. I did TV shows like Tashan-E-Ishq (2015) and Amma (2016). I did a Satish Kaushik film in Haryanvi, titled Chhoriyan Chhoron Se Kam Nahi Hoti (2019). I was also a small part of the film, P Se Pyaar, F Se Farraar (2018) with Jimmy Shergill. But now, I wish to give more time to acting. I am looking for a house in Mumbai, so that I can settle here and have my home here as well as in Haryana”
The actress is grateful for giving her a stage and fame. She said, “I feel more people know me now. Earlier, only people in Haryana knew me and the ones who were a part of politics”
