MUMBAI: Rashami Desai is one of the most popular television actresses. She has been part of several shows and won audiences’ hearts. She was last seen in the famous reality show Bigg Boss 13

Her popularity escalated after her participation in the reality show.  Things have only gotten better for the actress post her stint in the show, but was it always the same? Well, before making her mark, Rashami Desai had gone through several hardships. In a recent interview with Pinkvilla, the Dil Se Dil Tak star revealed how being brought up by a single mother didn't come very easy for her. She also confessed how they couldn't afford her dance class fees back in the day. 

During their interview, Rashami Desai revealed that her mother was a government teacher and was certainly not in the position to pay for her dance class expenses. "I started with Bharatnatyam and I was shifted to Bollywood dance in the third year," said the actress. During the same, Rashami added how acting wasn't her first preference and she was keener on becoming an air hostess or a choreographer. "I never told my mom I wanted to be an actor. In fact, earlier I wanted to become a choreographer like Saroj Khan or an air hostess. But the choices that came my way, I looked at it as an opportunity. My mom supported me throughout," she continued. 

Further, her mother Rasila revealed how she had to change her daughter's name because of that fear the society and their relatives won't accept her acting career, as Rashami was the first one in their family to enter the world of showbiz. 

Rasila said, "I was a single parent, I did not have a husband to support me. Also, in our caste, she was the first woman to enter this field. Our entire family was very educated and did not think of acting as a career. But, I supported her. I was scared of my family and society, so I changed her name. But my sister was there to support me throughout."
