Alaya F admits she couldn’t speak Hindi, couldn’t dance, wasn’t a B’town buff before becoming an actor

Alaya recently opened up about how acting was not a career she had initially wanted to pursue, and that she wanted to become a film director instead and shared how even when everybody around her kept telling her that she’d become an actor some day, she didn’t believe them.

She said, ““Everyone kept telling me ‘yeh toh actor banegi‘ (she’ll become an actor). But it was more like, ‘kuch aur nahi hoga, yeh toh actor hi ban jaayegi‘ (she won’t be able to be anything else, she’ll become an actor only). I was like… I was quite good in school, I would go out partying, I’d not study that much but my grades were always good. So I was like… I can actually do whatever I want, people are underestimating me. So I wanted to prove to everyone that I can do whatever I want, I’ll be a director, I still loved the films,” .
