Tanisha Mehta on Faith: TV Star Seeks Peace, Clarity and Trusts Bappa With Destiny

Tanisha Mehta has opened up about her faith and the personal prayers she made to Lord Ganesha during this year’s Ganesh Chaturthi celebrations in Mumbai.

The television actor, who spent part of her childhood in New Zealand and Australia, spoke about what the festival means to her and how she turns to Bappa for peace, guidance and clarity when life becomes uncertain.

Mehta, who rose to wider recognition as Vrinda in Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi Season 2, currently leads its spin-off ** Kyunki Rishton Ke Bhi Roop Badalte Hain ** alongside Rohit Suchanti.

Tanisha Mehta’s Biggest Prayer to Bappa

Speaking about her prayers this year, Mehta said her biggest wish was centred on the well-being of her family.

“My biggest prayer to Bappa this year was very simple — peace, happiness and good health for my family,” she said.

The actor explained that she prayed for her parents and loved ones to remain safe, healthy and happy. She also sought the personal strength needed to make the right decisions in her own life.

For Mehta, the festival represents more than a traditional celebration. Her words suggest that faith also provides a sense of reassurance while navigating personal and professional uncertainties.

‘I Prayed to Bappa to Guide Me’

Mehta also spoke about moments when life can feel confusing, particularly when important decisions about the future need to be made.

“Life gets confusing at times,” she said, adding that she prayed to Bappa for guidance, clarity and the ability to remain grounded.

The actor’s comments reflect a personal approach to faith in which prayer becomes a way of seeking perspective rather than simply asking for specific outcomes.

She said she wanted the strength to make the right choices and remain steady while deciding which path to take.

Tanisha Mehta Wants Growth in Her Career

Alongside her personal prayers, Mehta also sought professional growth.

She said she has worked hard to reach her current position and wants to continue developing both as an actor and as an individual.

Her prayer, she explained, was also about having the courage to pursue the life she wants even when circumstances become challenging.

The sentiment comes as she continues to establish herself on television following several roles across Hindi shows.

‘Some Wishes Are More Special When You Don’t Say Them Out Loud’

While Mehta was open about praying for her family, health and career, she chose to keep some personal wishes private.

She explained that certain wishes feel more meaningful when they remain between the individual and their faith.

“I feel some wishes are more special when you don’t say them out loud,” she said, describing her decision to leave those hopes in Bappa’s hands.

Mehta added that she believes what is meant for her will eventually reach her at the right time.

“I truly believe that whatever is meant for me will find its way to me at the right time,” she said.

Tanisha Mehta’s Television Journey

Mehta has appeared in several Hindi television projects, including ** Ikk Kudi Punjab Di, Shubh Laabh – Aapkey Ghar Mein ** and ** Lag Ja Gale **.

Her profile grew further with Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi Season 2, where she played Vrinda and shared screen space with veteran actor and politician Smriti Irani.

She has since continued as the lead of Kyunki Rishton Ke Bhi Roop Badalte Hain, where her pairing with Rohit Suchanti has received attention from viewers.

From Television to Music and Film

Mehta’s work has also extended beyond daily television dramas.

She appeared in the film ** Bhakshak ** and has featured in independent music projects, including ** Ab Teri Baari ** by Ayushmann Khurrana and Naezy, as well as ** Jhanjer ** by Dalbir Rana.

As she continues to explore different areas of entertainment, Mehta says her faith remains a source of grounding.

For the actor, this year’s Ganesh Chaturthi prayer was ultimately less about asking for a specific outcome and more about seeking peace, clarity, courage and trust in the journey ahead.
