Darshana has been part of around seven Bengali films till now. When asked about how she started he career, she said, “My friends sent my pics for a beauty pageant show. I was not interested at all. Later I
was selected and they asked me to give the audition. My father encouraged me to do it and give it a try. Then I was selected by PC Jewellers as their brand ambassador as they wanted to introduce a fresh face. That’s how I got into modelling,” said Darshana.

The actor studied Bachelors of Arts in Honours English and was studious always. “My mother wanted to see me as an actor and I wasn’t interested with this field. She passed away two years ago and now I want to fulfil her dream by continuing in this profession,” added the Bengali.

Darshana is happy about being a part of Aatagallu. The actor says that the makers of the film have taken a lot of care about her on the sets and treated them like their daughter. “Rohit was a lot encouraging. He supported and helped me with the dialogues on sets. Thanks to all of them for helping me during all the thick and thin,” she concluded.
