Early life

Career

Acting

Trivedi started acting at a very young age. As a child artist, she has acted in Hindi serials like Hamrahi and Zee Horror Show in small cameo roles. In 1994, she acted in Prakash Jha's telefilm Didi which focused on the education of female children in rural areas. After taking a gap for studies in class 10th and 12th, Trivedi returned to acting as a teenager and did Gujarati theatre for few years. She has also received appreciation for her acting skills from the Gujarati audiences.

Her major theatre background helped her in getting many acting offers from television channels. She got her first break for a small role in a daily soap Babul Ki Duwayen Leti Jaa which aired on Zee TV. Thereafter, she did cameos & supporting roles in few shows like Dil Chaahta Hai and Kumkum – Ek Pyara Sa Bandhan. She also acted in the popular comedy sitcom Khichdi, the first show produced by Hats Off Productions. Despite the popularity of the show, Trivedi would not appear in its second season Instant Khichdi because she would be committed to other projects.

Later in 2005, Trivedi auditioned for Kituu Sab Janti Hai on the insistence of a coordinator. She didn't even have her photographs taken for self-promotion but she impressed them and managed to get a call back in two days. She won the lead role of Kittu in the show. She was chosen among 40–45 women based on her talent. It was the breakthrough point of her career. She played the role of a young extrovert 20-something young woman Kituu who takes the plunge to face the professional world. The show ran for two years and ended in March 2007.[5]

After that, she worked in various other Hindi serials like Zaara- Pyaar Ki Saugat, Jaane Kya Baat Hui and Bajega Band Baaja.[6]

In 2010, Trivedi acted in SAB TV's comedy sitcom Papad Pol opposite Swapnil Joshi. She became popular for her role of Kokila in the show[7] for which she was nominated at the Indian Telly Awards in the category for Best Actress in a Comic Role. Papad Pol ended on 13, September 2011.[8]

Trivedi also portrayed the role of Tulika in SAB TV's comedy serial Sajan Re Jhoot Mat Bolo.[9] The show ended on 6 January 2012 after successfully running for 2 years. Trivedi also appeared as a guest in famous dance class show Nachle Ve with Saroj Khan hosted by Saroj Khan, on 21 December 2011.[8]

Since 2012, Trivedi kept a distance from television, spending time with her family, until she made a comeback in July 2013 with Zee TV's horror show Fear Files: Darr Ki Sacchi Tasvirein.[10] She did an episodic role in the show. She later entered in Sony TV's popular court room drama Adaalat where she played the role of a public prosecutor.[11] She acted as mother in Tedi Medi Family a wonderful TV series on Big Magic channel. Presently she is working with SAB TV as Rupal (Chakudi) in their new TV show Saat Phero Ki Hera Pherie.

Dubbing

In 2001, Trivedi gave her voice to Daniel Radcliffe's role as "Harry Potter" in the Hindi-dubbed version of the first film of the Harry Potter Series. Since the second film of the series, her brother, Karan Trivedi took over as the second Hindi dubbing voice for Harry Potter, until it was passed to Rajesh Kava after the fifth film. Since then, she has lent voices in various animated and live-action films like The Incredibles and Barbie Mariposa. She has dubbed for some Gujarati films also.

She's also said that to be the official current Hindi voice for Disney character, Hiro Hamada.

Personal life

Trivedi's father, Tushaar Trivedi is now directing plays as a drama director at the Bhartiya Vidya Bhavan in London. Her mother, Jaya Trivedi is a housewife, and the greatest inspiration in her life. Her mother commutes between Mumbai and London. Whenever she's in Mumbai, she frequently visits her daughter on the sets with homemade food and also helps her to select the right kind of work.

Trivedi married her boyfriend, Niraj Sanghai in 2009. Niraj Sanghai works at Prime Focus Ltd, a post production services company. They met through a common friend on the sets of Kituu Sab Janti Hai.

gollark: The reason this never happens, and that British wizards never do anything smart, is that magic was actually reverse-engineered by a technology company's research department back in 1960 or so. They use memetics and/or various wizarding mind control things and/or generalized fidelius charm to stop everyone else being smart, while secretly ruling wizarding Britain.

gollark: It is canon™ that gun beats unprepared wizard.

gollark: Well, the horrible pain of being on fire might be bad.

gollark: It might be hard to deliberate while on fire.

gollark: Magically?
