Now Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi is taking yet another leap. How old are you going to be on the show?
I think I will be 250 years old. The age factor in Kyunki... is grossly miscalculated. I have been married for so many years on the show and Gautam has already had three weddings... So I will be 250 years old and Ba will be 600 years old!
As an actor on the show, do you approve of one more leap?
As an actor I have always loved challenges and yet another leap is definitely challenging. The show is more than six years old now and every year I have had scenes which people have talked about. So, every time I have come up against challenges I have enjoyed myself.
Apparently you were not informed about this leap by Ekta Kapoor?
I agree that I am still not aware of the description of my character and the way its going to shape up, but that doesn't bother me.
Incidentally this is the day when I had signed the contract with Balaji for Kyunki... Over these six years I have never asked Ekta about my track, so why should I start now?
Apara Mehta said she was unaware of her exit until she read about it in newspapers. Were you aware of it?
I came to know about it at the same time as she did. As I've said earlier, I never interfere in the tracks, mine or anyone else's, on the show.
