Viewers have seen the smart, intelligent and arrogant Natasha Kapoor of Sony TV's Bade Acche Laggte Hai. She is portrayed as the most career oriented girl in the show.

Well, Sumona Chakravarti, who portrays the character also has something to tell us regarding her alternate profession had she not become an actor.

What If... with Sumona Chakravarti

"The one thing that comes to my mind when I think of an alternate profession is Marketing. I would have done it in a Multinational Company in FMCG or luxury brands.

I did my honors in Economics and I guess I would have done well in Marketing. After my studies my dad did suggest on doing an MBA, but my parents never forced me on what I should do or not. Actually I do not believe in the concept of having a backup profession.

Since the time I saw Sushmita Sen on stage wearing the Miss Universe tiara on her head, I wanted to be like her, a model, an actress and a great human being. She is a very intelligent person; someone with beauty and brains. Like her even I want to adopt a kid irrespective of whether I am married or not.

Actually acting was one thing I always wanted to do. I don't regret the decision of getting into this field even today, but yes, when a break occurs in between two shows and when you are sitting idle after a show, you definitely feel like doing something else. I have my friends who are doing their Business Management abroad."
