This year saw many fresh, aspiring and beautiful faces joining the league of Television actors. Among them, one face which caught our attention is that of the simple, do eyed beauty of Jaipur "Aakanksha Singh."
Aakanksha, has recently made her debut as a widow and single mother in "Na Bole Tum Na Maine Kuch Kaha," a show aired on Colors. It takes a lot of courage and conviction to play a de-glamourised role in one's very first opportunity, but Aakanksha has already made a mark in the hearts of the audience with her subtle yet impactful portrayal as Mrs. Megha Vyas. She is not new to the field of acting since she has already been a part of theatre. Akanksha currently is pursuing her studies in Physiotherapy. So let's get to know a little bit more about this "Beauty with Brains."
