Meet actress who took leftover food to feed her family, today she is a…, her name is…
Born on 3 July 1984 in Amritsar, Punjab, Bharti Singh's life did not start easily. She lost her father when she was just two years old. After this, her mother, Kamla Singh single-handedly raised Bharti and her siblings. For this, her mother also worked from house to house. What did Bharti reveal about her life?
In an interview, Bharti recalled the difficult days of her childhood and said that the condition of her family had become so bad that they did not even have money to eat. In such a situation, the leftover food of others became the means of filling the stomach for the family. Seeing the hard work of her mother and her sacrifice for the children, Bharti decided that she would do something big for her mother and be successful in life.
Bharti, who suffered from poverty in her childhood, never gave up. She completed her studies and also won a gold medal in rifle shooting in college. But, her life got a real direction when she entered the world of comedy. What was Bharti's first job?
Bharti's comedy career started when she appeared in the fourth season of the stand-up comedy show 'The Great Indian Laughter Challenge'. Her bubbly and cute character of 'Lalli' in this show won the hearts of the audience. Her laughter, funny punchlines and carefree style made her a star overnight. She was the second runner-up in this show. But, this was the beginning of her career. After this, Bharti never looked back.
After this, Bharti slowly started climbing the ladder of success. She got a chance to work with big comedians like Kapil Sharma and Sunil Grover. Her presence in 'Comedy Nights with Kapil' and 'The Kapil Sharma Show' made the shows even more interesting. Bharti's specialty is that she presents things of common life in her comedy in such a way that everyone feels connected to it.
Bharti left her mark in many TV shows. Her presence in reality shows like 'Comedy Circus', 'Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa', 'Nach Baliye' and 'Fear Factor: Khatron Ke Khiladi' entertained the audience. But, her real magic was seen in 'Laughter Chefs: Unlimited Entertainment', where she appeared as the host. This show further enhanced her charismatic personality.
Bharti married writer and host Harsh Limbachiyaa in 2017, with whom she has worked in shows like 'Laughter Chefs'. Their chemistry is amazing both on-screen and off-screen. Bharti gave birth to a son in 2022, whom she has named Lakshya and fondly calls Gola.

That one hour you might get when it's quiet in the house and you get to watch Love Island's new season with a glass of wine or maybe even a book [when] I am supposed to be reading my scripts.' She also shared that when she and her husband, along with any guests, are finishing a late-night movie, she quietly raids the fridge for snacks. 'I am that person… a big snacker. I want to make sure I get the snack scavenging in while everyone's distracted with the movie, because you can't do it after. If you do it after, there's too much attention on you: 'What are you eating?' And then everybody wants to eat, and it becomes a meal, and then I'm heating up food. You've got to sneak out during a really important part of the movie. So that's what I do.'
