Honest confession...when I first saw promo of Ek Hasina Thi on TV I honestly thought Simone was miscast!
I did not think too highly of her acting abilities and definitely not ability to pull off a Negative role.

In initial episodes too I felt she was okay. Only acknowledged that she looked drop dead gorgeous for her age and for the character that she was playing.

But now in last few weeks I have been totally astounded by her performance as Sakshi Goenka! 👏

The subtle changes in her gaze, the sharp, cutting way she speaks her sarcastic lines, the tilt of her neck, her posture that instantly screams royalty whether she sits or stands...it is amazing and applause worthy.👏 Her pronouncation is so clear both in Hindi and English. Very good dialogue delivery!

Never seen a vamp who is so evil yet so classy!⭐️

No offense but it is Simone who is the "hasina" in Ek Hasina Thi for me! She overshadows everyone! Often even the men in the scenes! 😎

It is not easy to hold one's own besides an actor as talented as Ayub Khan. He has often overshadowed actors and actresses in his previous shows. But Simone matches him at every step and rather outshines him!👍🏼

You just OWN the screen as Sakshi Goenka!👏

I love the casting and concept of EHT. But now, I have no qualms in admitting I watch this show primarily for Sakshi. So smart, so calculative, so electrifying...she adds the sting and spark in every clash.👏

Hats off to creatives for creating Sakshi Goenka and to Simone Singh for breathing life into this slimy but electrifying character! It will be sheer injustice if award juries ignore her!

Such a "slime covered with sophistication" vamp is rare and unheard of on Indian telly!

I read Urmila Matondkar was first offered this role. She rejected it saying she wanted to play the lead!
Nakhre!😆

Today Simone is doing such a fab job and is no less than the lead!

I want her to win awards. Too bad SPA neglected her!

thank god urmila didnt take it..

Simone singh- perfection, elegance, beauty, persona, style
all in all she lives the character of Sakshi Goenka and plays with with utmost precision

Honestly speaking in SPA i felt for Best Stylish Sadasya, infront of Sakshi Goenka there should not been any other nominations.. Straight away the award goes to her.. but i read that the category is only for leads.. so very happy that atleast durga won it..👍🏼

yes she is an amazing actress with a wow factor ,though i dont remember her performance in heena as i was very young that time,but i m impressed by her but i feel its unfair to compare performances of actors with her .For eg actress playing suchitra she is perfectly playing her role,but her role is different ,so its doesnt have that impact.

Nice post.

I liked her in Heena and now it seems she has matured into a fine actress. Beauty and talent and perfect casting.

We can create our own awards and give her the most interesting actress award.

I agree with you completely that Simone has captured the essence of Shakshi and actually taken her to a level where we the audience want her to out smart the...

The Hasina of this show. She evokes both love and hate in us and leaves us with her skill that has to be admired.

I started to watch this show mainly for the story and seeing that justice has to be dealt to the Evil Trio.

And now I love the battle of wits between Shakshi and Rajnath and Shakshi and Durga.

Shakshi has stolen the thunder from the rest of the cast and without her this show will not survive.

Simone does indeed deserves many awards. 👏

Very true. One cant stop admire the electrifying character of Saakshi Goenka. She steals the show most of the time and Simone really breathes life into Saakshi Goenka

Superb job by the creatives and fabulous portrayal of Saakshi by Simone.
