Actress
Saniya
Khera,
known
for
her
work
in
shows
like
Junooniyatt,
Tose
Naina
Milaike,
Mann
Atisundar,
and
Prem
Leela,
is
currently
seen
as
the
negative
lead
in
Shehzadi
Hai
Tu
Dil
Ki.
She
believes
the
best
way
to
connect
with
today’s
generation
is
by
being
honest
and
real.
Talking
about
the
challenges
faced
by
young
people
today,
she
said,
“One
of
the
biggest
pressures
is
constant
comparison,
especially
in
the
age
of
social
media.
There
is
also
confusion
about
careers,
mental
health
struggles,
and
the
fear
of
not
being
‘good
enough.'”
She
added,
“My
advice
would
be
to
slow
down,
focus
on
personal
growth
rather
than
instant
validation,
and
build
a
strong
support
system.
It’s
important
to
remember
that
everyone’s
journey
is
different,
and
trusting
your
own
timing
makes
all
the
difference.”
Saniya
strongly
believes
that
failure
plays
an
important
role
in
shaping
a
person.
“Failure
is
extremely
important;
it’s
often
the
most
honest
teacher
you’ll
ever
have.
When
you’re
starting
out,
it
helps
you
understand
your
strengths,
your
limits,
and
what
truly
matters
to
you.
Success
can
make
you
comfortable,
but
failure
makes
you
aware.
It
builds
resilience,
patience,
and
clarity,”
she
said.
For
her,
success
means
“waking
up
with
peace,
staying
true
to
my
values,
doing
work
that
feels
meaningful,
and
growing
without
losing
myself
in
the
process.”
She
explained,
“The
definition
of
success
changes
with
experience.
Achievements
matter,
but
not
if
you
are
constantly
anxious
or
disconnected
from
who
you
are.
Real
success
is
a
balance
between
ambition
and
well-being,
dreams
and
reality.”
Recalling
her
initial
days,
she
shared
that
patience
and
consistency
were
the
biggest
lessons.
“I
learned
to
show
up
every
day,
work
honestly,
and
not
compare
my
journey
with
others.
I
started
listening
more
–
to
feedback,
to
silence,
and
to
myself.
Believing
that
struggles
are
temporary
but
growth
is
permanent
helped
me
stay
grounded.
Most
importantly,
I
trusted
the
process,
even
on
days
when
I
didn’t
fully
trust
myself.”
She
also
spoke
about
the
importance
of
mental
health
in
her
life.
“No
dream,
no
deadline,
and
no
achievement
is
more
important
than
your
peace
of
mind.
Earlier,
I
thought
pushing
through
exhaustion
and
emotional
overload
was
strength.
Now
I
know
that
understanding
your
feelings
and
taking
care
of
yourself
is
real
strength.”
Her
message
to
the
younger
generation
is
clear:
“It’s
okay
to
not
be
okay.
Talk
about
it,
seek
help,
take
breaks,
and
don’t
measure
your
worth
through
constant
productivity
or
social
media
comparisons.
Your
mind
needs
care
just
like
your
body.
When
you
protect
your
mental
health,
you
don’t
slow
down
–
you
build
a
stronger,
more
balanced
version
of
yourself.”
Talking
about
what
gives
her
hope,
Saniya
said,
“Today’s
generation
is
more
aware
and
fearless.
They
speak
openly
about
mental
health,
individuality,
and
self-expression.
They
question
outdated
norms,
stand
up
for
what
they
believe
in,
and
choose
paths
that
feel
true
to
them.
Despite
the
pressure,
they
carry
empathy,
creativity,
and
a
strong
sense
of
purpose.”
