  I always believe that if a person wants then what can’t he do. I think if he wants, he can come from any place, whether from the village and make his mark. So acting was my dream since childhood. I am actually a classical dancer since childhood. So I felt that dancing would make it easier for me to act. I used to act in school too, so everyone knew that I loved acting. Then one of my teachers said that if you want to take acting seriously, then take admission in DU because theater is very good there.

• In an interview, Anushka Kaushik recalled an interaction with one of her family friends when her mother shared about Anushka’s acting stint and how the family friend reacted. Anushka Kaushik said,
  

  That uncle said, ‘Film industry! ladkiyon ki toh ye halat hoti hai’. He told how the industry is not good for girls and spoke about the casting couch. I still remember the expression on my mother’s face, it had fallen. She even countered him saying that her daughter won’t be doing anything like that. She really wanted to support me, but her world is different. Though my world has changed, hers is still the same. My mother stopped mentioning (to anyone) that she is an actor. She got embarrassed. And that episode hit me hard.”

• According to Anushka Kausik, initially, her mother, Kusum Sharma, was sceptical about Anushka’s career as an actor; however, after seeing her accomplishments, she was happy about her decision.

Anushka explained,
  

  Because of this, there was a time when my mother and I did not talk to each other even though we lived in the same house. When we had to talk, we used to do it on the phone. But they didn’t talk face to face. The reason for this was acting. I used to say that I promise that I will not do anything wrong but this is what I have to do. At that time she was also angry. Sometimes he used to feel bad about the dress and sometimes about something. Even now they get angry on some things. This is our generation gap. Life has changed a lot for me but for them the world is still the same, their people are the same, the things that are happening are the same. So as a youth we have to understand that the world is the same for the parents.”
