Akansha Ranjan Kapoor confirms dating Sharan Sharma
In an interview with ETimes, Akansha confirmed her relationship with rumored boyfriend and director Sharan Sharma. She said, “Yes, I am in a relationship with Sharan.”
The actress added, “While I have not hidden the fact that I am dating him, I don’t like to discuss my personal life too much.”
Akansha on making a mark in the industry independently
Further shedding light on her journey in the film industry, the actress expressed that making a mark entirely on her own carries a unique sense of accomplishment, one that she can distinctly feel.
She also disclosed that her father, Shashi Ranjan, harbored aspirations of becoming an actor but was the sole individual in his cohort at the Film and Television Institute of India (FTII) who couldn't make it as an actor. Among his peers were luminaries like David Dhawan, Satish Kaushik, Gulshan Grover, and Shatrugan Sinha.
Akansha emphasized that her father understands firsthand that merely associating with actors isn't sufficient; one must carve out their own path for success. She echoed this sentiment, affirming that she has imbibed the lesson of self-reliance in her journey as well.
“I have been friends with actors, but I never expected them to help me out in any way. I know my journey and my circumstances. I am familiar with failure, but I have never imagined seeking help from my friends in the industry. I want to be able to make it on my own,” Akansha Ranjan Kapoor added.
