Samridhii Shukla is a popular name in the Indian television industry, who is currently grabbing limelight with her role as 'Abhira Sharma Poddar' on the long-running serial, Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai. The young actress recently opened up about her childhood struggles and how she grew up in a financially constrained household.
As reported by News18 Showsha, Samridhii Shukla opened up about her family’s conditions during her childhood. She shared that in her childhood, she was conscious enough to understand her family’s condition. She explained that from a young age, she started working so that she could reduce some pressure of her father as earlier he was the only earning member. In her words:
"I never nagged or pestered my parents for anything. Maybe because I was very conscious about the circumstances at home. I wanted to start earning early to fund my education and reduce the weight on my father, who was the sole earner. Whatever I earned as a minor was kept in an account managed by my mother. I used it only for emergencies or education."
She continued to add that the first time she earned money, it was only conveyance money. She explained that she had gone to give an audition and even though, she didn't get the part, she was given Rs. 200 for that. She shared that despite being very young at that time, she understood the value of money.
Talking about financial stability, Samridhii mentioned that acting is a very unpredictable profession as no one knows the duration of a project. She explained that as an actor, everyone should have something like an SIP or PPF to secure their future because according to her, financial independence is the way of sustaining a lifestyle. She was quoted as saying:
"As actors, we live a very volatile life. We don’t know how long a project will last or what pay we will get next. For me, financial independence means being able to sustain my lifestyle even when I am not working. That’s why I believe in saving and investing. Our parents’ generation didn’t have much financial exposure, but today we do. Everyone should have something like an SIP or PPF to secure their future."
During the same interview, the Saavi Ki Savaari actress also spoke about her sister, who works in a marketing agency in Mumbai. She mentioned that whether it be the corporate or entertainment industry, the pressure remains constant. While talking about long working hours in the industry, she shared that she agrees with it, but still loves her job. She shared:

"Even my sister, who works in a marketing agency, is working round the clock. In a city like Mumbai, where sustaining yourself is expensive, whether you’re in corporate or entertainment, the pressure is constant. On top of that, doomscrolling on social media has made people lose track of time. But despite the long hours, I genuinely love my work."
