Bringing smiles to tired faces

Chandigarh, July 16
A career in the tinsel town takes much more than merely dreaming to settle down. In a changed scenario of economic, social and professional worlds, the career graph needs to be planned meticulously.

This was said by Kulraj Randhawa of the tele-serial 'Kareena Kareena' fame while talking to The Tribune here today. The bubbly 'Kareena' talks at length about the pranks she plays to bring smiles to tired faces who return home late in the evenings. She also talks about the tremendous response she is getting to the role of a 'sardar' in the serial; these days, which will go on for another month.

"'Kareena Kareena' is not a slapstick comedy which makes it different from others. It is a situational comedy which is loved by families and youngsters", she said.

Kulraj is a product of Army Public School, Dagshai. She was doing a bachelors degree in business management at Bangalore when she was picked by Kishore Namit for a course in acting. She has tried her hand as a freelancer in magazines.

"One needs to be very sure about one's points while marketing himself to any producer. This has to be supported with photographs clicked by a professional. A producer has to make a selection from among hundreds and sometimes thousand faces. You have to stand out", she said.

Kulraj said gone were the days when one could dream of emulating a Dharmendra or a Manoj Kumar struggling on the streets of Mumbai and making it big. She said one had to learn to cope with pressure of staying at a place like Mumbai where cost of living was very high, needed emotional support and had to be psychologically strong to withstand pressure of possible rejections at the entry point.

Kulraj feels that opening of scores of television channels has transformed the screen into a world where one can think of making a full career unlike earlier times. She feels that majority of television serials on air, at the moment, were not of very high quality. "I had made a conscious decision to stay away from the typical 'saas-bahu' and 'ghar ghar ki kahaani' serials and am happy with the response that 'Kareena kareena' has evoked." She said the quality serials on Indian television were 'Nukkad', Buniyaad' and 'Yeh Jo Hai Zindagai'.

Kulraj said she would have loved to be a part of 'Sholay'. She has been approached by some producers for the films, however, she has not yet decided. She says she
will to love to work with Ram Gopal Verma or Yash Chopra.
