Motto: “Live life king Size. Live your dreams. Take Risks. Follow Your Passion. Work Hard.”
Prachi was born in Delhi to Jaat parents and grew up in Delhi. A self- proclaimed tom boy with short hair, Prachi went through her adolescence getting major attention from girls specially while playing basketball. She attended an English medium Christian school followed by her graduation from Jesus and Mary college, Delhi University. She did her post graduation from IMT Ghaziabad and IP University Delhi. She has been a part of some renowned companies like Deloitte, Accenture, Development Bank of Singapore.
It was then that fate decided to take its place in her life. When Prachi was 23, she received a message on her Facebook fan page which was apparently of a sports person for a role on very famous show on Star Plus named as Diya Aur Baati Hum. He took it as a joke until a friend from the industry advised her to take it seriously and atleast talk to the concerned person about the role. She took the decision to change the career, take a risk and do something different in life and grabbed this opportunity.
However it wasn’t the easy ride, she had to loose 20 kgs within 3 months and also learn acting to compliment the other experienced actors and considering the hectic schedule.
From a sportsperson famously known as Queen of the Courts and Lass of the Rings by TOI and Indian Express respectively to being a tall beauty queen to winning the hearts of millions on screen. Prachi has come a long way grabbing opportunities but this is not where the journey ends; there is a more beautiful road that lies ahead for this young charming girl.
There can be no-one so multitalented like Prachi. No-one..
