Why CJ is Jassi's best friend

Why CJ is Jassi's best friend

July 20, 2005

Vikas Bhalla seems a multi-talented star. He has dabbled in films, television and a singing career.

After featuring in serials like Tum Bin Jaoon Kahan and Karishma: The Miracles Of Destiny, he is now appearing in Sony's popular show, Jassi Jaisi Koi Nahin.

Bhalla talks to Vidya Prabhu about his serial and more.

Tell us about your role in Jassi.

I play C J Oberoi, a multi-faceted personality. He is arrogant and kind at the same time. It's more along the lines of Jekyl and Hyde.

A negative role?

I don't think so. CJ believes what he is doing is right. He might come across as negative to some, but eventually he ends up being an ardent supporter and friend of Jassi.

What made you take up Jassi?

Everything about the show appealed to me. It's a hugely popular show with a brilliant cast and crew, not to mention my very well carved out role.

What's common to both Vikas and CJ?

We are go-getters. The similarities end at that.

Why did you switch from singing to acting?

In my struggling days, in the early 1990s, I was primarily looking at singing offers. Then I met director Sudhakar Bokade, who auditioned me. Before I knew it, I was working on my first film Sauda, followed by films with stars such as Kajol, Manisha Koirala, Ayesha Jhulka and Neelam.

But your films did not click.

I gave films my best shot but there is such a thing called destiny and I believe in it. Often, good movies don't click while mediocre ones make waves at the box office.

Any regrets?

None at all.

What are your upcoming projects?

As far as television is concerned, I'm working on Shanno ki Shaadi with Divya Dutta. It will go on air in August.

I have got three films lined up -- Marigold with Salman Khan, Pyar Mein Twist with Rishi Kapoor and Dimple Kapadia, and a Hindi-Punjabi bilingual called Chudiyan with Gracy Singh.

My next album, Sajna, will release in two months.

What is your ideal role?

The role potrayed by K K Menon in Sarkar.

Who are your favourite actors?

Tom Hanks, Aamir Khan and Kamal Haasan for their acting prowess. Undoubtedly, Kishore Kumar for his singing.

great to no that he will support jassi.. Infact I feel that he has actually started supporting her since the last episode when he asked Mallika abt the Case

No!

Not another 'Abla Naari ko Uthsaahith Karoonga aur usse chipkaa rahoonga' Martyr Please!

We women can look after ourselves and we don't need pathetic specimen of teh species called men to take decisisons for us in the name of support like we have no brains!

Creepy Joe, please mind your own business, get a good girl and go have a life. Our J can look after herself and Armu very well.

We don't want you to forcefully become her support system and then wail that she is being an ungrateful wretch not returning your favors by not marrying you!🤢

We have had enough of that! Spare us and AJ!

Thanks Shama.😃
