Actress Mahima Makwana is all set to start her Bollywood journey with ‘Antim’ alongside Salman Khan and Aayush Sharma. The actress started off her journey in showbiz as a child artiste in television with Mohe Rang De in 2008. Makwana got her big break in Sapne Suhane Ladakpan Ke and followed it up with daily soaps like Rishton Ka Chakravyuh, Mariam Khan (2018–19) and Shubharambh.
The actress remembers she met Salman at Bigg Boss during Shubharambh’s promotions, “Salman sir never teaches you directly, but you learn things from him while working with him on the sets and while conversing with him. He told me that no matter how successful I become, I should never forget where I come from. He kept telling Aayush and me how there is no replacement to hard work,” she was quoted saying.
Talking about her Bollywood debut film Mahima says, “There are too many emotions as there was always a dream to see myself on the silver screen. Now when it is finally happening, I just cannot believe it as I never imagined that my start in Bollywood would be with Salman sir, Mahesh sir, and I would be part of this wonderful script. Of course, I am nervous too. We are giving our piece of hearts to the audience. I just cannot wait for Antim to release.”
Mahima has already made her Telugu film debut in 2017 with Venkatapuram. The talented actress then followed it up with Rangbaaz Season 2 in 2019 which was her digital debut. Opening up about her journey till now she said, “I started out with television, and getting my first job there wasn’t an easy task. To add to this, not everyone has an easy life. We all have our own hardships. But all we have to do is keep going. To make your own mark is an effort. I made sure that I didn’t put myself in a box. If I do, everyone else too will. The journey was filled with ups and downs, and just like everyone leads through it, I was resilient too. There were moments where I was on the verge of giving up, but I got up every time after having a setback.”
Directed by Mahesh Manjrekar, Antim is all scheduled to hit the theatres worldwide on November 26.
