“Well, I started my journey with Ladies Special on Sony TV and later bagged the movie Patiala House. I always wanted to become an actor but I couldn’t, as there were loads of responsibilities on me, however after both my daughters’ wedding, they decided to send me to Mumbai to pursue my dreams, and I was lucky enough to get into television,” Charu had said in one of her earlier interviews.
