I really get along very well with Vikrant Massey - Sriti Jha

Q. How do you manage two shows at a time isn't it hectic for you?
A. It's not much of a problem for me to manage both the shows as both the shows are of the same production house, Sphere Origins. They schedule it really well for me and that is why it never becomes hectic for me. The time of both the serials never clashes.

Q. Which role among the two do you like playing? Which one is more like you?
A. Don't ask this question, I am trapped. But yes, I would say Sudha is more closer to me but it doesn't mean that I don't like Suhani. They are both very different type of characters. Unlike me Sudha is very timid, shy and insecure. Suhani is full of life. She is more into action. She does horse riding and all and has all the emotions which a human being has. I think both the characters I play are very different but yes Suhani's character is bit similar to my character.

Q. Don't you get late for the shoot?
A. No, not really. I make it a point to reach on time because I like being on time and not getting late. And these people coordinate the timings among themselves so well that it rarely happens that I get late on the shoot of either of the shows.

Q. Do you like cricket do you get time to watch IPL matches?
A. First of all I don't like cricket like every other Indian does. I am not mad about it. And I hardly get time to watch matches and whenever I get time I get so tired that I go off to sleep. But it's so much in news and around you that you can't escape also. On every television sets these days we only see IPL matches going on.

Q. How your life has changed after joining the television industry?
A. My life has become very busy after joining the television industry but any big change has yet not come. I am still the same old Sriti for everyone. As soon as I am out of my shoot I am same old Sriti and the best thing is that nobody recognizes me on street; very rarely people recognizes me and because of that I can be my own self.

Q. Do you like the way of working here?
A. Yes, I like the way television people work and we all really work hard. We all shoot all the thirty days a month with same energy and enthusiasm just to entertain our viewers. I know it's a bit hectic to work in the television industry but then the people are really dedicated towards their work here. I really like this dedication towards work and even I have become much more sincere and dedicated after becoming a part of television industry.

I dislike women who don't put kajal - Vikrant Massey

Q. What ideal qualities would you want in your woman?
A. Firstly she should live her life and let me live my life. I would love if my woman would cook Indian food for me and who is most importantly independent because I believe every woman should have her equal space. She should be intelligent and she should have really beautiful eyes. I think it all starts with the eyes. I dislike women who don't put kajal. I think that is one beautiful Indian quality that comes out.

Q. Would you prefer a homemaker or a working woman?
A. A homemaker at the same time who is working. I absolutely don't believe that the two are not possible. I want a woman who loves kids.

Q. Hottest getaway with her?
A. May be Venis, or Greece.

Q. Would you go for a live-in relationship if necessary?
A. I don't think so, even if I would want to, I would think about my family. If they don't agree, I think I have to stop myself and at the same time try to convince her that this is wrong because our culture does not permit it.

Q. How would you woo your woman?
A. I really don't know; may be I will try to do things that she wants me to do.

Q. If you found your partner having a fling with your best friend, what would you do?
A. I will shoot both of them (laughs). I think then I would just say, my friend does not deserve my friendship and my girl does not deserve my love. They both don't deserve me.

Q. Would you allow your future wife to wear short outfits?
A. Yes absolutely, why not. I would allow her to wear short outfits and I would also allow her to wear nothing when she is with me (laughs). But yes it also has to depend on the time, the place and the people.

Q. Are men from Mars and women from Venus?
A. No I don't think so. I think these days men are more romantic and expressive than women and I have had my share of experiences. Men do tend to express more than women.

Q. If most women don't like the supposed dominating nature of men, what is the one trait in women that turns you off?
A. Nagging; unnecessary nagging for stupid things that turns me off. Women should also understand that men do not say or do things because they want to be the dominating sex but at the same time there are certain things which women have to understand that men tell something and their actions say something.
