Serial you love to be part of… Tara, a serial on Zee TV… That's a character I would like to play. Another serial that really interested me was Rubaru, that starred Sandhya Mrudul. I would also want to be part of a show like Sarabhai vs Sarabhai.

If you were put on the TGILC2 stage… I would make a total fool of myself. I still have inhibitions on being on stage especially if it has got to be impromptu comedy.

The fact that makes you say, Mano Ya Na Mano! - I always wanted to be a singer as that's what I am trained for. Life took its own turn and today I am part of a television serial. Life, I think has its own goals and that amazes me.

Your Yeh Dil Chahe More for… Work, activity, challenges. These are some things that I need in large doses. I think I want longer days as 24 hours in a day is too short for it.

One place you feel Home Shanti Home - My bedroom, it's the place I unwind and where I am myself.

Your favourite Remixed album - Remixed music is not my thing. I am more into Ghazals of Mehendi Hasan. I like few film songs. In English I enjoy the music of the 60's… Elvis Presley!

What is your India Calling - Today, India is young and in the midst of a load of activities - social, economical and every area is developing. We are a new generation and must realize the great values we have. People in other countries are learning from us, why would I want to go anywhere?

When some one says Jet Set Go, you would love to pack and leave for - Goa… Anytime!

What increases your Heartbeat - I get very anxious at the thought of not having work to do. That scares me!

Message for your fans - Thank you so much for choosing to watch India Calling among all the other shows on television. We are putting our best efforts to keep you entertained.

Supriya Pilagaonkar
Supriya Pilagaonkar is the woman who needs no introduction... her age is concealed behind that lively attitude for life. Read on.

Serial you love to be part of… Any reality show… I think they are great and exciting to be part of.

If you were put on the TGILC2 stage… I will end up imitating all the other stalwarts there.

The fact that makes you say, Mano Ya Na Mano! - It is a very spiritual incident that is true in my life. I was going through a rough patch and I prayed with all my soul to my Guru and miraculously the problem got solved, I just couldn't believe it! That reassures me that one cannot deny the presence of the supreme being!

Your Yeh Dil Chahe More for… Nach Baliye.

One place you feel Home Shanti Home - My Home with my family. I also feel very comfortable on stage… Theater is where my soul lies.

Your favourite Remixed album or song - I can't choose one, some of them are really good!

Do you qualify yourself to be a Cook or Cook Na Kaho - I am the cook at home and my family seems ok, so I would call myself a Cook, Na kaho tho gharme kuch bhi nahi pakega!

What is your India Calling - Indians, the people.

When some one says Jet Set Go, you would love to pack and leave to - I have a long list of places I want to visit - Egypt, Spain, Turkey…

Message for fans - Wait and watch!

Future projects - Lots in theatre, nothing is planned for television as yet, so like I said… Wait and watch!
