Juggling between television and films is common fare for actors nowadays. This time, it's actress Navneet Nishan who has now bagged a Mukta Arts film. Navneet will manage her film schedule along with her commitments to primetime soaps like Kkavyanjali and Kya Hoga Nimmo Ka on Star Plus.
"I have already shot one schedule of Good Boy Bad Boy, a Mukta Arts film directed by Ashwani Chaudhary. In the film, I play mother to Tusshar Kapoor and wife to Sachin Khedekar," she says.
At present, Navneet is on a contract with Balaji. She plays Nirmala Devi in Kkavyanjali and has to work certain days every month. Navneet has reserved the rest of the days for her film forays.
However, Navneet is no newcomer to films. Having debuted in Bollywood some fifteen years ago, Navneet has grown as an actress. She played 'Kammo' in Raja Hindustani, and she now has more films to her credit. Navneet was last seen in Vinta Nanda's White Noise and Dharmesh Darshan's Bewafaa.
"I prefer roles that satisfy my frame of work—be it films or TV serials," she says. "Besides, when I'm offered a role which suits my personality and is challenging, I don't have any qualms about switching from the big screen to the small screen and vice versa. I can't choose one medium over the other, as both have their own rewards," she says.
Regarding her repertoire of roles, Navneet says, "Actors hate getting typecast. But I don't think I am getting into niche roles. I have been playing diverse roles with various productions."
However, don't people mostly know her as 'Tara' even today? "I don't think so! A lot of people have accepted me in the various roles that I have played. They have shed their memory of Tara. Besides, even if they do, what's the problem? It was such a hugely popular soap, that today the number of people who remember me is really heartening! It happens only to fortunate actors nowadays!" she says.
