New Delhi: Actress Ashnoor Kaur is very happy by scoring 94% marks in class 12th. Ashnoor told “I am feeling very happy. This year, I did not take up any long-term acting project like the daily soap, as I had to focus on my board exams. I wanted to do better than what I did in class 10th. It was not that I did not work during this time. I had several small projects in the line. Everything was online, so it was tough for us, but somehow I managed and I am proud of my achievement.
She said, ‘This is something that we are all experiencing for the first time and there was a lot of uncertainty. We did not know how the final result would be declared. We had to give our best in whatever we were doing. I would like to appreciate this initiative taken by CBSE to collate the performance of previous years in collating the results of class 12th. It was a very thoughtful gesture. I wanted to enjoy school life in the final year, but it didn’t happen. I was disappointed, but the online classes made it convenient for me, as I could study while traveling.
Ashnoor Kaur also recalled the time when she checked her board results online. She said, ‘I was hoping that my result would be good. I worked very hard. I had given my 100% in all my life and practicals because I didn’t want to disappoint myself. I had set expectations. I wanted to make my parents proud. I was very nervous before the result. I didn’t check my 11th class and I didn’t know how all this would count in the final result. My parents were with me when I checked it online. We all cried out in excitement. It was a nice family moment. I recently got a Shih Tzu puppy and he started licking me too.’
Anshur further said, “We are looking to go on a vacation, but our options are limited as we have to look for pet-friendly resorts. I will now apply for colleges. I want to do BMM (Bachelor in Mass Media) because I want to gain knowledge in my field also. I am also interested in directing and would like to learn filmmaking as well. I want to enjoy my college life. These years of one’s life are unforgettable. I will also continue acting. I want to study in Mumbai itself. I am excited about this new phase of my life.”
With her stupendous score in the 12th board, Ashnoor has challenged the common belief that actors are not good at studies. She says, “I wanted to set an example. Many people came to me and said that you have proved us wrong that actors cannot be intelligent. They are smart. It’s about your passion, your talents, and your choices. It is not related to mental ability and intelligence.
