Actor Palak Tiwari, who recently made her Bollywood debut with Salman Khan’s Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan, has shared her reasons for not wanting to pursue a career in television. Since her mother Shweta Tiwari is a well-known television actor, Palak believes that entering the television industry would have been comparatively easier for her, but she chose to focus on films instead.

In an interview with Mastiii, Palak said, “I knew that I wanted to do movies. I feel my mom did TV for so many years and she has handled and done everything so well. There is nothing left for me to do. And there would anyways be comparison, but I think I never stood a chance in TV.”

Shweta Tiwari, who made her acting debut in 1999, gained widespread recognition for her portrayal of the character Prerna in the popular soap opera Kasautii Zindagii Kay.
