Career

She then shifted to Mumbai and started working as an assistant director. Later, she auditioned for a TV commercial and got selected. In an interview, while talking about getting her first TV commercial, she said,

I was working as an Assistant Director at a music studio in Mumbai. I was hanging out with a friend after work; she was on her way to an audition. She asked if I was interested in tagging along. I figured, why not? I was utterly frazzled after a tiring day at work. My hair was a mess; I had no make-up on. Everyone around me was tall with long and straight hair, face full of makeup. It was quite intimidating.”

She added,

I was sure I was not going to make it. By some miracle, the casting team selected me. That is how I did my first commercial for Vivo (with Ranveer Singh), completely by chance. Casting directors and agencies then started approaching me. Four years down the line, I am still doing it.”

She has appeared in various TV commercials such as La Shield, Sofy, Whisper, and Tinder.

 

Anjali has also worked as a model in the print advertisements of popular Indian fashion designers like Sabyasachi Mukherjee and Masaba Gupta.

  Music is in my blood. My mom is a singer. All our family functions would consist of everyone gathering around and singing – that was our idea of bonding. In school, I was in the choir. There was music all around me. I did have this rebellious phase, where I quit my singing class without telling my mom. Many years later, I realized the importance of formal training, so I am back at it again.”
