She was ‘almost homeless’ before she got her first movie says, Shreya Dhanwanthary

• Shreya Dhanwanthary is an Indian actress.
• She recently shared that she faced several financial struggles and was even on the brink of homelessness during this time.
• It took 10 years to make my first film.

Shreya Dhanwanthary is an Indian actress and model associated with Hindi and Telugu language films and web series.

Shreya’s new movie, Chup: Revenge of the Artist, came out recently. She has said that she struggled for a long time before she found her place in the entertainment business. She recently said that she had a hard time with money and was even close to being homeless during this time.

She says, “It was ridiculously difficult. Wanting to be in films was a part of me that I kept secret from my other secrets because I thought it was so ridiculous and unachievable for someone like me. I can’t quite believe that I am here.” She added that she still doesn’t feel she has made it.

As her co-star in Chup Dulquer said, “But you didn’t take that long,” Shreya clarified, “You had a 10-year career. I took 10 years to make my first film.” She then added that she was ‘Trying to make my first film’ during that time. She added, “Don’t ask me how I did it. I don’t know how I did it. I don’t know how I stayed here, how I continued staying here…not having the money, to almost being homeless, to stay hungry for a long time. I don’t know how I did it, some sort of psychosis for sure.”
