TV Actress Erica Fernandes Opens Up About Her Struggle With Dyslexia

In December 2022, Erica Fernandes shared she was shifting her base to Dubai. This was a major shocker for her fans who were expecting to see more of the actress on TV and the big screen. However, looks like Erica has some more revelations to make. In fact, she just made a rather jolting one!

Erica opened up about a childhood struggle in a recent podcast for Mashable Middle East. During the chat, the actress was asked if she was a good student in school. She replied, “I am dyslexic. Everything that was on the board used to dance. It’s still now. Sometimes, when I look at words, I feel like it will spell right but I keep wondering why it doesn’t look right. There’s something wrong about this.”

The Kasautii Zindagii Kay star added, “I am a virtual learner. I observe a lot. That’s the reason why I don’t read much. But I can hear and watch something and learn. I was not into studies a lot. I used to sit 1-2 days before the exam and that’s when I used to study. I was an average student and in school I would be within 10.”

Erica’s Life In Dubai

Erica was recently seen in an Amazon Mini TV horror film called The Haunting. The actress keeps frequenting India to manage short-term work projects. But looks like she has also started establishing a career in Dubai. The actress is currently hosting a game show in Dubai called Emirates Draw. Meanwhile, she has also started a production and event management company known as Celeste Media film production. As per reports, her company is doing well and thriving!

Kudos to Erica for sharing her story with the world and giving hope to everyone who has kids struggling with Dyslexia. She turned out to be a fabulous actor and is now living her best life in Dubai. How inspiring!
