Aahana Kumra, the actress who was last seen in Madhur Bhandarkar's India Lockdown, has revealed in an interview that she has not been offered roles for 3 years, and has shifted her focus from acting to production to keep the house running.
Speaking to Hindustan Times, Aahana shared, “I am not being offered shows anymore. I haven’t received an offer in more than three years. Nobody is offering me anything. I used to do so much work on OTT but haven’t done any for so many years, and I am completely fine with it.”
Aahana Kumra also shared her frustration over the lack of opportunities for actors like her, as most filmmakers prefer casting only A-listers. She said, “They (makers) want to go to a star or somebody who is going to charge less. I am looking at alternate forms of cinema because I have to run my kitchen. I am trying to do something else in life.”
Ahana further added that the tag of 'good actor' has caused more damage to her career, "Honestly, I have carried the very ‘good actor’ ka tag for long now, I am done now. If you are a good actor, nobody offers you work, and yeh good actor ka tag leke mujhe kuch karna nahi hai agar kaam hi nahi milraha (What will I do with the tag if I don’t get any work).

Aahana was seen in TV series Yudh, movies Lipstick Under My Burkha, Khuda Haafiz, and web series Rangbaaz, Betaal
