Playing the new-age bahu

Confident, charming and adventurous, these are a few qualities that
describe Gunjan Walia. She plays the lead protagonist Krishna in the serial
Kuch Apne Kuch Paraye, to be aired on Sahara One Television from
November 13. She shares her thoughts about her role in the serial.

How did you bag the role of Krishna?

I met producer Navid Antulay and the director Rahul Mevawala. Before I
could realise, I was a part of this ambitious project.

How did you prepare yourself for the role?

I paid a lot of attention to the look of the character, Krishna. I tried that it
had a certain panache and charm. The character demanded a lot of
attitude.

What expectations do you have from the audience?

I think the audience will enjoy watching Kuch Apne Kuch Paraye and hope
that my work will be appreciated.

How was your experience of working with director Mevawala?

This is my debut on television and I think that Rahul is sweet. The
production house has provided a healthy environment for the actors.

Tell us more about your character Krishna?

In the serial, the director has captured the essence of a father's
relationship with his loving and caring daughter-in-law, Krishna, and how
she fulfils her role. It also showcases Krishna's life as she jostles with
odds to bring the estranged family together.

Are you doing any other projects now?

I am focussing only on Kuch Apne Kuch Paraye right now. — DP
