So are you and Jassi finally getting married? We've already been married some three or four times in our dream sequences. But I'm told it will soon happen for real. (Catch the wedding on August 5). Are you still under an exclusive contract with Sony? Is Jassi... going the melodramatic way because of falling TRPs? Are you happy with the way Armaan Suri's character has shaped up? I definitely miss the old office gang and hope they manage to weave them back into the story. Parmeet Sethi's one of the finest comic actors I've seen. And these days Vikas Bhalla and I have really bonded. Were you ever threatened by Purab's (Samir Soni) popularity? No one person can carry a show on their shoulders. Plus, I wasn't intimidated while shooting with Shah Rukh Khan in Pardes. This was a piece of cake. Did you ever consider quitting? I'm under no illusions. The show is called Jassi Jaisi Koi Nahin not Armaan Jaisa Koi Nahin. I have no hassles with doing television. I know tracks change and the spotlight can't be on me all the time. How would you have wanted Armaan Suri to turn out? When I took the role, he was a business tycoon who'd go to any length for his company. Today Armaan is someone who's learnt from his mistakes. Sometimes I feel the character's achieved its purpose, at other times, no. What did you think of the Jassi makeover? Would you undergo one? I loved the new look. On the sets we welcomed the change as we were tired of the glasses and braces. I did try long hair for a while but everyone hated it. Now friends are saying I should give it another shot. If you had to rewrite Jassi..., what would be different? I'd definitely have a scene showing Raj crying. I'd also turn Maddy into someone serious who Jassi can confide in. |
