Yes, we are talking about Mayuri Congo.
An actress of the 90s, who was seen in films like ‘Naseeb’, ‘Betaabi’, ‘Hogi Pyar Ki Jeet’. Mayuri Kango, who appeared in ‘Papa Kehte Hain’, proved to be a flop heroine. We will tell you how the actress who became famous as soon as she arrived, became a struggler. How did the actress who became a struggler become the industry head of Google India?
Got acting as a gift from mother
After doing a few films with Mayuri Kango, she realized that she would not be able to earn a coin in Bollywood. That’s why he did not delay in saying good boy to Bollywood and changed his field. Mayuri grew up in Aurangabad. His mother Sujata was a theater artist. That’s why acting was not difficult for Mayuri. When a child actor was needed in the theatre, Mayuri used to play that role.
Such was the entry in Bollywood at the age of 15
Mayuri Kango was very good at studies and since childhood she had only one dream that she has to get a good job in corporate after studying. At the age of 15, when Mayuri’s exams were about to come. Some time ago Mayuri came to Mumbai with her mother, her mother had some play. That’s why the daughter also came with the mother. Meanwhile, director Saeed Akhtar Mirza, who was a friend of Mayuri’s mother, saw Mayuri while he was making a film on the demolition of Babri Masjid. An important character was given to Mayuri for this film. At first, Mayuri refused for this role, because her exams were on her head, but when her mother insisted her, Mayuri shot for this film. This film became a National Award film and the name of this film was ‘Naseem’.
Had proved himself with ‘Naseem’
Mayuri played the character of ‘Naseem’ in this film. Mayuri proved from her first film that she is a capable actress. After this film, Mayuri again returned to Aurangabad and gave her 12th examination and started preparing for IIT exams.
