| How did you enter the television world?
I was always associated with the world of acting. After I won Miss
India 2002, many opportunities came along. I've done a couple of films which are yet to be released. Eventually, when I thought of doing serials I realised, there's nothing better than
Balaji Telefilms. What is your current project on television?
Currently I'm doing Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi by Ekta Kapoor. In the 20-year leap,
I play the character of Bhoomi Virani. What character do you play?
I play Bhoomi whose mother is raped by her first husband. Bhoomi is brought up by Karan and Tania Virani. Consequently, she is much pampered. She is a spoilt brat who is blunt and selfish. How far do you relate to that character?
I don't relate to Bhoomi at all. Though she loves her parents a lot, she has no feelings for other family member. She's the opposite of what I'm.
Can you tell us about your hobbies?
I love to sing, dance, sketch, travel. Besides, I'm also a good cook.
What was the happiest moment in your life so far?
So far, it was when I won Femina Miss India 2002 contest. But happier moments are yet to come. What kind of role do you like to play?
I'm not specific about the characters that I play. As an I artiste, I like to play challenging characters. What are your future projects?
For now, I'm concentrating simply on Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi. I'm also awaiting the release of my films, Tumse Milke and Banaras 1918. Let's see where it goes from there. Close Up

I started my career as a Channel [V] VJ. I also was one of the 10 finalists of Indian Idol. This gave me a bigger platform where I was noticed. Thus, I made my foray into TV serials, my first one being Ekta Kapoor's Kaisa Yeh Pyar Hai. What are your current projects on television?
I'm currently working in Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi on Star Plus. Here, I play the role of Manthan, Karan and Tanya Virani's son. What character do you play?
My character is typically of a bade baap ki bigdi hui aulad! Manthan is over confident and proud since his father's a billionaire. He misuses his power. Basically, his is a very selfish character. How far do you relate to this character?
I am diametrically opposite to the billionaire's son that I portray. We have nothing in common. Can you tell us something about your hobbies?
I like singing, watching movies, listening to music and playing squash. Which has been the happiest moment in your life?
The happiest moment of my life was when I signed my first television serial. What kind of roles do you like to play?
I like to play characters which have lots of emotion and many shades. But more than positive characters, I like to play the negative ones as they call for more creativity and effort. What are your future projects?
I want to launch my music album. As far as my future projects are concerned, I will be starring in a show which will release, maybe, next month. The name of the show has not yet
been decided. |
