She was introduced to showbiz by one of her friends who believed that she could act and should pursue her career in acting. “I am not a trained actor but we used to make dramas at home along with my friends and family on our handy cam in which we used to direct, act , write ourselves that gave me a green light that I could act,” says Kinza.
