The 21-year-old says while growing up she wanted to be an air force pilot.

"But I think it was destiny and this (acting) was meant to be...I got the opportunity and i grabbed it and slowly I started finding a lot of interest in acting," she added.

Disha will be seen playing an archaeologist in "Kung Fu Yoga", which will hit the screens on January 28.
