Much before emerging as the winner of 'Bigg Boss 14', television actress Rubina Dilaik rose to fame as 'Soumya' with 'Shakti - Astitva Ek Ehsaas Ki'. The show made a mark with its slant at breaking stereotypes and showcasing the struggles of a 'kinnar', or transgender. As Shakti completes 5 glorious years on air, Rubina talks about her journey so far with the show. 

"Shakti gave my career a second chance and this show drastically changed my career graph. Shakti helped me build myself as an actor in many ways, and helped me showcase my versatility as an actor and a performer. Shakti gave me so much recognition and fame that people actually went back a good 6 -7 years to see the kind of work I had been a part of back then. So yes, Shakti helped me change my life in a bigger and better way," shares Rubina.
