A Bit About Me

Anika has just turned 10 years old and already has considerable on-camera experience. She is best known for her portrayal of Annalise in multi-award winning short “Elementary Brilliance” which she filmed at just 7 year old. Anika won several Best Actress Awards for her performance and has recently filmed a sequel – currently doing film festival run. She has also filmed her first feature, “Made in Caravan” as Zara – due to release late 2022. Apart from several short films, she appeared in many TVCs and worldwide campaigns in leading speaking roles. She has natural on-camera presence, playfully mischievous personality, is very athletic, can do tumbling and trampolining and is also a strong singer.
