Working with smriti is fun: Mouni Roy

Working with Smriti Irani has been fun: Moni Roy New Delhi, July 7 (UNI): With her simple demeanour and her girl-next-door looks, she seems very much the perfect successor to 'Tulsi' of the popular serial 'Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi', the icon of virtues for millions of housewives in the country. For Moni Roy, the dusky beauty from Kolkata who plays the protagonist Krishna Tulsi in the 'post-generation leap' in 'Kyunki Saas..', the reality of bagging the central role in what is considered the most popular soap on telly today is only now beginning to sink in. "When I first got a call from Balaji telefilms that I was to play 'Krishna Tulsi' in 'Kyunki.......', I was in the midst of a class for a course in Mass Communication I am doing and so had no time to react. However, now when I find myself the center of all attention with everyone on the sets, from my co-stars to members of the production unit, rallying around me to help me perfect the 'look' and the 'demeanour' of 'Krishna Tulsi', it all seems somewhat like a dream," Moni told UNI in an interview. For Moni, it was her plain good luck that she got the role of 'Krishna Tulsi', a character for which thousands of wannabe actors across the country had auditioned during a nationwide talent hunt conducted by Balaji Telefilms during the last few months. "On May 7, I appeared for a general audition with Balaji Telefilms at Marwah Studios in Noida and was asked to appear two days later for a look test for Balaji's new serial 'Kasturi', to be aired shortly. After appearing for the look test, however, I got a call from Balaji that I had been selected to play Krishna Tulsi," she says. So how was it rubbing shoulders with veteran TV actors like Ronit Roy, who plays Mihir in the serial, and Smriti Irani, who plays Tulsi, we ask.

"Acting alongside veteran TV actors like Ronit Roy and Smriti Irani has been a pleasurable experience. However, working with Smriti Irani has been really great. We share an excellent rapport on the sets. In fact, she has been treating me with chocolates and ice creams. All of us on the sets are just like one big family with all my co-stars helping me work on my character," she says with a feeling of elation.

Thanks Limey, I always think Tulsi is a very kind hearted person. She might be overpressured once in a while because of Multi-projects she handles all the time.
Yesterday I saw her vedeo from IBN CNN Citizen Journlist and then I saw her on Kandy Floss. I must say, she has a full control on her dialogues and body language. She is a great person, actress and Speaker.
