Hina Khan, who is currently entertaining the viewers with her stint as a senior inside the Bigg Boss 14 house, recently talked about losing film offers in the past. The actress said that quitting her hit television show Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai, in an effort to pursue new projects was difficult. The actress also admitted to losing films because of being a TV actor.
In an interview to an Entertainment news website, she said, “I got my first television show with just one audition, it was easy. But my struggle began after that. There are a lot of ups and downs that you see, and times can get difficult. I did a show (Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai) for a really long period. Even during that time, I got a lot of film offers - big, small - which I had to let go of. I lost out on those opportunities when I was doing that show. After that, when I decided to quit the show and move on, it wasn’t an easy decision.”

Narrating a story about how a film producer implied that her image as a TV actor was coming in the way of her career. She said, “People might still not remember you if you do a show for two years. But I did YRKKH for 8 years. I have never been offered a huge project or something. There was this one big producer who had once told me, ‘Hina, I really want to cast you but when I want to watch you on the Internet, all I can find are those Yeh Rishta videos.’ That made me change my viewpoint and I wanted to do things to present a bouquet of my work, so that tomorrow hopefully a big producer can notice me and give me a big film.”
Hina made her Bollywood debut with Vikram Bhatt's Hacked in February 2019.
