Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai: Samridhii Shukla shares insights on her life on set

Recently, we got an insider's look into her life on set, particularly her much-talked-about vanity/makeup room. "My steps for my vanity would always be: of course, I have to do my makeup because that's why I'm in the vanity, and I carry my own makeup kit," Samridhii says. 

Her vanity is more than just a place to get ready; it's a sanctuary that reflects her personality and needs. " I have a food basket, which has a lot of food and beverages that I consume throughout the day!" she shares with a laugh. Beyond the essential makeup kit, her vanity is equipped with a speaker because, as she puts it, "you need to listen to music. Yes, it's nice to do things with the music on and have my coffee." 

But what if her vanity van could talk? Samridhii quickly imagines, "It would say that she sleeps more than she should in the vanity, and even in my makeup; I usually spend my free time sleeping instead of doing anything else!" This little insight reveals how much she values her rest and her vanity's comfort during long shooting days. 

When it comes to music, Samridhii doesn't have a single favourite genre. "I don't have any favourite music, but if I had to pick one, I would say I like classic jazz music. It's very nice, but that's not what I always listen to. It's always a mix of a lot of things. I could be listening to rap, I could be listening to jazz, I could be listening to pop—it depends on my mood, but I think I like jazz more." Her eclectic taste in music reflects her dynamic personality, and she is always ready to adapt to her current mood and needs. 

For Samridhii Shukla, her vanity or makeup room is more than a mere convenience. It's a personal space, a creative hub, and a place where laughter and joy abound. Whether she's catching up on sleep or jamming to her favourite tunes, her vanity is an essential part of her daily routine, making the long hours on set not just bearable but enjoyable.
