The road was undeniably challenging. She said she used to accompany her mother to auditions and meetings. She said that she enrolled in an acting school where her mother dutifully dropped her off and picked her up from school. She underwent a three-month course and subsequently auditioned for Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai directly from the acting school, successfully clinching that role.

Charu Asopa talks about the casting couch she faced
Charu Asopa recounted an unsettling encounter during a film meeting with a prominent production house. She chose not to disclose the name but emphasised its stature.

Charu says, “The disturbing discussion left me sick and extremely perturbed.” I showed my inability to meet his expectations with folded hands. His answer was venomous, claiming that if I refused, other girls waiting outside would. I remained strong and asked him to cancel the contract.” In the past, Charu said that she originally dismissed such claims as mere fabrication, presuming they were the result of persons unable to break into the sector. This personal interaction, however, broke her illusions, exposing the cruel reality even at the highest levels.
