ONE of the most popular stars on TV, model-turned-actress Asha Negi has regularly beenlighting up the small screen and enchanting her legion of fans. The crowning glory for the former beauty queen has been a starring role in Pavitra
Rishta,where she plays an intelligent, beautiful adopted daughter. While hercharacter Purvi has been widely appreciated by fans,
critics and industry professionals, the chemistry she generates with on-screen love interest Arjun (Rithvik Dhanjani) has become the show's biggest talking point.
Eastern Eye got three of Asha's biggest fans ' Sadi Kapoor (18), Ria Krishna (20) and Sakshi Maggo (18) ' to ask her searching
questions in turn about life, love, work, hopes for the future and her co-star Rithvik Dhanjani.
Posting questions only about Ram, Sakshi and BALH
Sadi: Who has been your favourite co-star?
My all-time favourite would be Ram Kapoor. I can never forget the day when we shot for Bade Achhe Lagte Hain in Australia and I had a scene with him. Frankly speaking, I was extremely nervous. Firstly, he was so senior that I used to shiver whenever I had a scene with him. Secondly, I had only got my lines just 10 minutes prior and being a newcomer I was not very good at it. But he made me feel so comfortable that if there would have been someone else, I'm sure they would have got irritated. Although I know I didn't really do it well, he still praised me for my work. So, my favourite will always be Ram Kapoor. I really enjoy being with Jia (Mustafa), Shruti (Kanwar) and Rithvik (Dhanjani) also.
Who is your role model?
My role model will always be Sakshi Tanwar. I love everything about her. Even though she is so senior in the industry, she has no tantrums, is extremely sweet, grounded and so talented. I just love her and always want be like her, carrying myself with the respect and dignity she has.
Out of the roles you have played to date, which do you relate to more ' Purvi (Pavitra Rish ta) or Apeksha (Bade Achhe Lagte Hain)?
I think I am somewhat like Purvi; the way she believes in being selfdependent, and I am also a very happy-go-lucky kind of person.
