In my family, everyone is a lawyer, and I initially planned to pursue law too. However, after my father changed my school in 9th grade, I discovered my passion for acting. Before that, I didn’t know much about theater, but I was an enthusiastic kid who wanted to try everything—sports, dance, and any activities happening around me. When I found out there was a theater play at my new school, I was eager to participate. At first, I wasn’t selected because only 16 students were chosen, and I was disappointed since I really wanted to be part of it, even though I had no acting experience. Luckily, they decided to take one extra student, and I was the 17th chosen. Once I performed, I loved it and realized that acting was what I wanted to do.
After that, I spoke to my family about my passion for acting, and many things started happening that drew me further into the world of acting. I had also enrolled in an MBA program, but I decided to drop out after I got a lead role in Sun Neo’s Saajha Sindoor. It was a tough decision, as I had cleared the CAT entrance exam with flying colours. However, I chose to follow my heart and focus on acting instead. With the kind of love and support I am receiving as Phooli, I and my family are very happy with the decision.
Stuti Vinkle stars as Phooli in Saajha Sindoor, where her captivating on-screen chemistry with Sahil Uppal, who plays Gagan, has won over audiences. The show chronicles the marital journey of Phooli and Gagan, while Saroj, portrayed by Sangita Ghosh, plots to create discord between them.
