Now she plays the lead in Ashutosh Gowariker's inspirational serial Everest which will be aired on Star Plus in July-August.

 

Says a reliable source, "It's a serial about a girl who aspires to climb the Everest. Ashu chose Shamata Anchan after auditioning dozens of athletic girls. He wanted someone who looked convincing as a mountain climber."

 

The fastidious filmmaker has put the debutant through rigorous mountaineering lessons.

 

Says the source, "Ashutosh wanted Shamata to not only look convincing climbing the Everest he also wanted her to put forward the emotions and feelings of a girl who wants to touch the sky."

 

Apparently Shamata would be launched in style by Gowariker on the big-screen as well.
