Son Pari made her a household name, and following that, she became a well-recognised face and even acted in several films. Tanvi's popularity soared, and she became one of the most loved child artists in the advertising industry. She worked in more than 100 TV commercials.
Unlike many child artists who gradually fade away, Tanvi successfully ventured into regional cinema, especially Marathi films. She gave stellar performances and won audience herarts for her work in movies like Shiva, Athang, and Dhurandhar Bhatwadekar.
Despite receiving a lot of love, Tanvi distanced herself from the industry. She last featured in marathi movie Alipt in 2021. Since then, she has maintained a low profile. Tanvi is also not a social meida enthusiast and stays away from everytype of limelight.

This actor was once stabbed by his friend, bled excessively, was rushed to hospital, was saved by..., his name is...
This actor was once stabbed by his friend, bled excessively, was rushed to hospital, Om Puri saved him by..., his name is... Naseeruddin Shah is considered one of the most versatile and talented actors that Indian cinema has ever produced. In 2024, the actor introduced his autobiography titled 'And Then One Day' and revealed several interesting anecdotes from his personal and professional life. He also opened up about an incident where he was stabbed by an actor friend Jaspal and Om Puri then interfered to rescue him. During the shooting of his 1977 film Bhoomika, Naseeruddin and Om had gone to have a dinner at a restaurant. Just then, his friend Jaspal, with whom the actor shared a strained relationship arrived at the place. Naseeruddin Shah shared, 'We ignored each other but, eyes fixed on me, he passed to sit on another table behind me, so I thought. After a while, I was reminded of his presence by what felt like a short sharp punch in the middle of my back. I started to rise, wearily preparing myself for another free-for-all. Before I could move, Om with a strangled cry lunged at something behind me. I turned to see Jaspal holding a small knife, its point dripping blood, his hand raised to strike again, and Om and two others grappling to subdue him.' The senior actor than narrated further, 'Om returned to inform me that Jaspal had been taken to the kitchen and was being given the treatment. He wanted to take me to a doctor but was thwarted by the restaurant staff refusing to let us move till the police arrived. When the ambulance came, Om made the cardinal error of climbing in as well without permission and managed to rile the boss-man, thereby asking the cops to be gentle with me. He was ordered to get off and after considerable pleading with the goon in charge was allowed to stay. Neither of us had an idea where we were headed but I prayed it was not the police station.' Naseeruddin Shah was then rushed to the Cooper hospital and later to Jaslok hospital as he was bleeding excessively from his injury. 'The bleeding had not seized, the pain was getting intense and these cops obviously had not quite understood the situation. After a few cursory questions to us, and some garbled transmissions over the radio in Marathi, we arrived at Cooper Hospital in Juhu,' he wrote. The actor also mentioned in his autobiography that Jaspal, after the incident, had arrived to meet him at his home. Rather than apologising, he said that whatever happened wasn't 'personal.'
