"I was so fascinated by acting that I wanted to become a part of it at any cost," Sharma told Punjabi Mania. "I remember when I was a kid (even before I started going school), I used to buy a flute from a 'balloon wala' and play it. Now I realise that it was an art. As my father was quite rigid I had to take the extreme step[, a]nd now with the hard work and love of all I am doing well."
