Remember actress who played princess in serial Chandrakanta? Know what she is doing after 29 years

In the 90s of the showbiz industry in India, the show Chandrakanta was a huge hit. The concept of the show made a place in fans’ hearts, and the lead actress who played the role of Princess Chandrakanta became fans’ favourite. However, as it is said that very few people can sustain stardom, and that is what happened with the lead actress of Chandrakanta.

Once a show which ran due to the face of this lead actress, though gave her name and fame, did not give her sustaining one. This actress, after the Chandrakanta series, vanished into thin air. If you are wondering whose name it is, then this actress is Shikha Swaroop.

Born in October, Shikha won the Miss India International title in 1988. In the same year, Shikha won a gold medal in the All India Pistol Shooting Championship. She was a supermodel in her time and did over 400 shows in India and across the globe.

Shikha Swaroop made her debut in 1990 with Awaaz De Kahan Hai, and then in 1994, she gained major fame with the serial Chandrakanta. Chandrakanta, which aired on Doordarshan from 1994 to 1996, made her a star overnight.

She tried her luck in movies and TV. Over her tenure, Shikha worked in 11 films like Tahalka, Pyar Hua Chori Chori, Policewala Gunda, Police Public, Qaidi-Kanoon, and Awaz De Kahan Hain throughout her career.

In most of these, she was in the lead role, but she did not get the fame in Bollywood that Chandrakanta gave her. Gradually, she disappeared from the industry, and her stardom was lost in oblivion.

Now, she works as a model in the fashion industry.
