Jasmin Bhasin opens up about her struggles

Recalling her early gigs, Jasmin Bhasin shared that she used to earn around rupees 500 or 1000 for hosting events. She shared that her turning point came when a renowned photographer's team, staying at the hotel where she worked, approached her for a brand photoshoot. Earning rupees 5000 for this opportunity, her pictures were put up in hoardings and newspapers which opened the doors for more lucrative photoshoots and projects.

Approached by a Delhi-based photographer for a portfolio shoot, Jasmin, facing financial constraints, found support as the photographer agreed to charge nothing. The resultant pictures led to an advertisement opportunity in the South industry, where she earned rupees 27,000 for a day's work.

Upon moving to Mumbai, Jasmin faced financial challenges and struggled to pay rent. However, an ad opportunity brought her rupees 30,000, providing a reprieve.
