"I don't make plans for my career. I go by what is offered to me. With so many mediums available today - films, television to web... There is work for everyone, it is a matter of luck," Shamita told PTI.
Post "Mohabbatein" which was her debut film, Shamita was seen in movies like "Zeher", "Bewafaa" and "Cash" but she failed to make a mark with the projects.
The actor says she has never analysed what went wrong in her professional life.
Shamita is returning to acting with Voot's new web series "Yo Ke Ho Gaya Bro".
Shamita says the digital medium is the future of India.
"For starters, the digital platform is the way forward. We are living in the digital age, it is one platform where many filmmakers are experimenting and there is no censorship here. I feel this is the right time to be here."
Shamita, who has been part of reality TV shows like "Bigg Boss" and "Jhalak Dikhklaa, says post her stint on the small screen, she got several offers.
"People started coming in and narrating me stories. Like this web series 'Yo Ke Hua Bro' got me back in the field of entertainment," she says.
