Urfi shared that nothing much has changed for her in the industry. "I've struggled a lot in my career. I am still struggling, I feel. I started my career with Rs 3000 per day. Also, initially, I don't know why but things were not working in my favour. All the shows I would sign, they would shut down in 3 months time. I don't think I've done shows for more than 3 months and I've ended up doing some 10-12 shows."
When asked what kept her going, she said, 'necessity'. 'I had only two options either keep struggling or suicide. Till date I've no plan B, this is what I know to do. This is my only plan and I've never thought about what else I can do. I don't think I would have been alive if I had not become an actress," she said.
Urfi is known for playing the role of Avni in Bade Bhaiyya Ki Dulhania, Aarti in Meri Durga, Bella in Bepannaah and Mira In Puncch Beat Season 2. She lasted in the Bigg Boss OTT house only for a week.
