Mouni Roy, aka Krishna Tulsi of Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi, shares some of the most important experiences of her life.
Day at school: I don't remember my first day. I was too young.
Day at college: I was scared, reluctant and nervous. I came from a small town called Coochbehar in West Bengal and when I was going to Delhi I got 20 salwar kameez made. The college I went to was called Miranda House and it was this really happening place. I was 16 and went there with my dad on the first day and saw all these girls in backless tops and short skirts! It was a big culture shock.
Job: Many people don't know this but I did a song for a movie Run with Abhishek Bachchan. I shot for 4 days.
Salary: It was for the same song sequence. I got 8000 rupees for a four day shoot.
Autograph: When I was shooting in Hyderabad the people did not even know who I was. But Indian audiences are so hooked on the idea of lights, make-up and cameras that they came to click pictures and take autographs. They didn't even recognise me!
Time in front of a camera: It was horrible and bad! I felt as if the camera was going to come and eat me up! My first shot was with Smriti Irani and she was just brilliant. There is a shot where Krishna Tulsi is a baby and she is floating in the water. Smriti was there playing with the child and laughing. As soon as the cameras started rolling she was able to break into tears in a second. I was very nervous because I didn't know anything, there were many people standing around and I was unaware of how everything functioned. Luckily it turned out to be all good.
Crush: Salman Khan
Date: I don't want to name him. It's of no importance
Kiss: Let me put it this way...it sent shivers down me!
Big purchase: I've not bought anything big really
Fight: I've always had my biggest fights with my parents and no other fights can compete with them. I'm the sort of person who doesn't like to be told what to do. If you ask me to walk right I will walk left so that always got me into arguments with my mom and dad.
