Career
Television

Once, in a media talk, Nikharika Chouksey talked about her childhood desire to become a television actress after watching television serials. She added that this desire led her to convince her father to relocate to Mumbai from Madhya Pradesh. She recalled,
I am not even from Mumbai. When I got the job in Yeh Hai Mohabbatein, we shifted here. We are not to Mumbai, so the film industry is a far cry. After watching TV, it seemed that there is also a thing called child artist. Coming here, I gave auditions at different places. Also forced intro. After 6 months I got a call for a cameo from Yeh Hai Mohabbatein.”
