After a lot of hunting and auditioning about 700 girls all across the nation, Balaji atlast signs in this simple girl from pune who played a small role of Palchinn is Kasam Se, to play Kasturi is their new show that was launched in April 2007, 'Kasturi – Lakhon Jaisi Par Lakhon Main Ek'. MediaCurry gives you Shubhangi Poore, new star on the K bandwagon. Shubhangi you are simple girl, married to a marketing manger and now have a one year old baby, how did you manage to get selected for this role? I always wanted to act. I have been a Kathak dancer. One girl was already chosen for the role but then I came to know that she is not playing it due to some issues, I auditioned and I got in. By the way I used to get my baby on the sets too. And my family and husband are very supportive; it's because of my husband that I am here today. Does Shubhangi connect to Kasturi in any way in reality? Kasturi belongs to a Punjabi middle class family form Delhi. Her dad owns a saree shop in Chandani Chowk. She is bright, intelligent & aspires to do something in life. I too come from a middle class family in Indore, I laso have huge with huge aspirations in life. Any other serials on the Agenda? I am a Balaji Loyalist! (Laughs) No really, I am very very happy with Balaji & right now I am fully concentrating on Kasturi. Kasturi is very traditional, especially her wardrobe, What about you in real? I know she is! I too want to come out of it. She can don some modern look, right. And personally I am into both types of styles. But yes, Kasturi can change a bit. But then it's all decided by our writers.
As I am a dancer I always wanted to play the role Hema Malini ji played, portraying Meera. I would love to do that one day if I get a chance. Co-star Troubles? No, none. Karan (who plays Robbie opposite Kasturi) is very supportive. Besides, one keeps learning new new things everyday and tries to put all that to use. Is Shubhangi planning anything 5 years down the line? As of now I am not planning anything. But yes it all depends on the offers and dates. With that this cute little woman, walks off after an hour on interviews & about 101 degrees of fever. Alas! Life on TV soaps can even do this, besides earning you big bucks. |
