After some time, Manisha Rani again requested her father to allow her to go to Kolkata to pursue her dream of becoming a dancer and actress.

Manisha took the leap of faith and went to Kolkata, leaving a letter behind for her father in which she told him everything about her dream.
Manisha Rani travelled to Kolkata by train without a ticket. The young girl had no money and was scared throughout the journey. Luckily, she wasn’t caught by a ticket collector and reached Kolkata safely. However, after reaching Kolkata, she knew she had to do something to earn money in order to survive in the city. As a result, she started working as a waitress at weddings and events. After some time, she also got the opportunity to work as a background dancer, which she accepted immediately. Manisha was making Rs. 500 per day back then.
But after working for just 10 days, Manisha Rani decided to stop working as a background dancer as she wasn’t comfortable in it. However, the manager refused to let her go and locked her inside a room. But she didn’t panic and found a way out of the room, after which she immediately borrowed Rs. 500 from her friend and went straight back to Bihar.
