Abhi Dolly banegi producer!

The small screen's Bhabhi, Dolly Sohi, may have been away from the acting front after her marriage and relocation to Canada but this hasn't deterred her from pursuing TV, albeit in a different role.

The actress plans to float a production house along with her brother, Surendra Singh Sohi. "This is something that I had been thinking about for long.

It is still in the initial stages but we have begun the spadework for it," she points out. Incidentally, Dolly's sister Amandeep Sohi, also acts in serials "so, she too is familiar with the telly set-up."

Similar line

Why a production house? "For the last nine years all that I have only done is act. There is nothing else I know or can do.

I don't see myself in the nine-to-five grind anywhere and the thought of working for someone in Canada is not my cup of tea either.

There is not much on the acting front for Asians in Victoria, where I am based. So the best thing for me is to do something on similar lines."
Dolly, who is currently in Mumbai till the month-end, has been giving a serious thought to the production idea.

"As I am here, I am trying to do all the groundwork. It will be in my name but my brother will see to the day-to-day operations.

Though I will be based overseas, once it takes off, I can visit Mumbai more often," chuckles Dolly.

Bhabhi cameo

The actress was recently seen in a comeback cameo in the Star show Bhabhi. "I shot for 10 days only.

Though the cast and crew have changed since I called it quits in 2005, I was received very warmly.

As the producers (UTV) knew that I would be in the city for a while, they offered me a role.

I wanted to be in Mumbai after my pregnancy that went wrong last year. I was extremely depressed. But what has happened has happened."

Besides shooting and catching up with friends, Dolly also visited her hometown Punjab. "My brother recently got engaged.

His wedding is in November and I will be back then with my hubby (software engineer Avneet Dhanowa)," informs Dolly.
