Erica Fernandes bags Dadasaheb Phalke award for Best Actress: It feels worthwhile for all the efforts

Actor Erica Fernandes who started her acting career with Kuch Rang Pyaar Ke Aise Bhi has now bagged an extraordinary award for role in the show. Her first show gave her extreme love and recognition and now, it has given her an award that she will cherish forever. Erica took to her Instagram account and announced that she has bagged the Dadasaheb Phalke award for best actress for KRPKAB. She shared a picture of herself with the prestigious award in her hand.

While sharing this happy news with her fans, Erica mentioned that she was honoured to receive that, plus feels that she has put her heart and soul into shaping her character Sonakshi. She wrote, “It is an honor to receive the #dadasahebphalkeaward for a character so close to me. It feels worthwhile for all the efforts, heart, and soul I have put into shaping Sonakshi, of course with the help of my director and my co actors. As a kid, somebody once told me that one day someone would give you a platform to project your talent; what you do of it is in your hands. No one can make you or break you. It’s up to you to work towards it and build yourself.”

“Personally, for me, it started as excitement, and then the enthusiasm grew so much that it turned into anxiety while I was receiving the award. (and that happens every time I walk up to receive an award) What was overwhelming was to see how thrilled people around me were! From my family and friends to my Ejfians and members of my society, all were very excited and had a scene of pride,” Erica added.
