Avneet stepped into the dazzling world of showbiz at just eight, participating in a dance reality show.
Back in 2022, she said in an interview, ‘I’ve been working for 12 years and it has shaped me to become the person I’m today. Being a child actor has given me a lot of information about this field which I wouldn’t have had I started right now.’
