You will not be a UK citizen straight away, doesn't work like that. You will however have permission to work in the UK. You need to go to the NMC website and meet registration requirements

Specializes in med/surg/ortho/tele.

first of all being a citizen will be a long process but you'll get rights to work. However, you need to take some board exam so that you get registered in UK too. The most important thing would be getting transitioned in different work area. Working on accent, learning about western culture, diff patient population, nurses autonomy. Everything will be smooth as long as motivation and passion for care is there.

I would suggest working as nursing assistant for few months so you get to know the difference and responsibility attached as healthcare provider.
