Ludhiana, September 23 Talking to Ludhiana Tribune, Anishka said she had not made any special preparations for the auditions. “It was all natural. There were no extra efforts. We went for screening where I was asked to perform on any number. I performed on the song “Chhote chhote shehron se…” from Bunty aur Bubly, which was appreciated a lot,” said Anishka, who participates in extra-curricular activities in her school on a regular basis. She added that if she wants to get further training in dance, she would be given a sponsorship worth Rs 1 lakh by Hungama TV for one year. She said out of 1100 selected kids from Ludhiana on day one, 30 kids were shortlisted, who exhibited their creativity, spontaneity and imagination during the two rounds called “Kahan Ki Masti” and “Jaan Pehchan” during the auditions. Anishka will represent Ludhiana and will be an important part of the only “Board of Kid Directors” in India at Hungama TV. “After every three months, all the selected captains will be called to Mumbai by the company for training. I will make sure that my studies are not affected,” she said. Ten-year-old Anishka wants to be an actor. “This is just a platform. If I get good roles, I will take up acting and give it my best”, said Anishka confidently.
