Nia Sharma, one of the most sought-after actresses in the Indian entertainment world, has shown time and again that talent can speak louder than criticism. A Twitter user had once called her the “ugliest celebrity” in the industry, but Nia has proved all her detractors wrong with her scintillating performances and incredible style. She is now a household name, winning hearts and ruling the small screen.
Neha Sharma, who is known as Nia, first appeared on the small screen in 2010 with the show Kaali: Ek Agni Pariksha. However, it was her role in Ek Hazaron Main Meri Behna Hai in 2011 that catapulted her to fame. She was seen in the popular show with Krystle D’Souza, Karan Tacker, and Kushal Tandon. She later appeared in shows like Twisted, Naagin 4, and Jawai 2.0, making her a versatile actress.
Apart from television, Nia has been in the headlines for her unbelievable success. She has been listed as the second sexiest woman in Asia by the UK-based weekly Eastern Eye, beating Deepika Padukone to finish only behind Priyanka Chopra. Nia took to social media to congratulate Priyanka on winning the title, with Priyanka responding enthusiastically.

Despite her success, Nia has faced challenges in the industry. She once shared her struggles with delayed payments, revealing that she had to fight for her dues, sometimes even standing outside studios demanding her payments.
In response to a Twitter user who called her “overrated” and criticized her PR team, Nia boldly shut down the comment saying, “I have no PR team to this day babe! I’m a natural, I guess,” proving that her authenticity is her true strength.
