ACTRESS Prachi Desai, who began her acting career with a popular TV serial Kasamh Se, says she has bid adieu to the small screen for good. “I had bid farewell to television, so I am not going back. Since I started and became famous due to television, the connect will always remain,” Prachi said.

She acknowledges that the small screen was becoming bigger with the entry of Bollywood stars through reality shows.

“Almost every film actor goes to TV nowadays, be it to judge a show, host it or for promoting their film. It has become big with big stars on the small screen,” she said.

After making her acting debut on TV as Bani in 2006, she won the second season of dancing reality show Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa in 2007. Later, she ventured into films with Rock On!! and was seen romancing Emraan Hashmi in Once Upon a Time in Mumbai.

This year, the 23-year-old actress will be back on the big screen with Bol Bachchan opposite Abhishek Bachchan and in I, Me aur Main opposite John Abraham. She will also be seen in a cameo in the Shahid Kapoor and Priyanka Chopra-starer titled Teri Meri Kahaani.

Prachi says she is very excited about all her upcoming projects.

“My role in every film is different. I am very excited and just cannot wait to start with the promotions,” she said.
