Prajakta Shukre makes acting debut

Prajakta Shukre, one of the ten Indian Idol finalists made her acting debut with Rihaee on Sony this week. Sony used her singing as well as acting talent on the show where Prajakta played the part of a young celebrity, who after a performance, witnesses the murder of her model - friend. Her performance had quite a positive reception and we personally felt she did a good job. "She's a young girl, and that made me have my apprehensions, but once we got shooting, Prajakta surprised us all with her acting skills!" exclaims Guroudev Bhalla, director, Rihaee. So does Prajakta have it in her to make it in tellydom? "I think she's extremely talented and capable of making it as a good actress. If she goes on and continues to act she'll surely make it big, and that's a directors cut!" he goes on. Guroudev also feels Prajakta is extremely professional and added that she even stayed back at times when the shoots were not done with. "It took her nothing to ask for a retake if she wasn't completely satisfied by a particular scene" Following the footsteps of Indian idol Abhijeet Sawant and Amit Tandon (one of the ten finalists on Sony's Indian Idol) who made their acting debuts on Sony, let's see if Prajakta uses acting or singing skills as her forte in the future!
