Daljit-‘I’ll be stepping into the real wo

'I'll be stepping into the real world now'

Daljit Kaur says she doesn't know why her serial is suddenly being pulled off air

HARSHADA REGE

Though Kulvaddhu on Sony was not Daljit Kaur's debut serial, it was the ultimate launch pad a newcomer could have asked for. Right from the sets and production values to her co-stars, she had all that was necessary to make a serial successful. Yet, within three months of telecast, the serial is being pulled off air. And all the actors including Daljit are clueless as to why this step has been taken. "We are shooting for two more days. After that, the serial will be wrapped up. All of us are still in shock. None of us knew what has gone wrong for them to take such a drastic step. I know that we may not be the number one serial, but the TRPs were pretty good," Daljit feels.
However, she says that she has enjoyed her experience immensely. "People would often ask me whether my schedules are hectic, but I never thought so. I was pampered by the unit. Everything and every need of every actor was taken care of her. In a sense, I'll be stepping into the real world now. And I have to admit that I am a little scared," says a slightly emotional Daljit.
Though Daljit has not signed any new serial, she is looking at some projects. "I have been a model and I would love to get back on the ramp," she says. What will she be doing after the serial is wrapped? "I am off to the UK for a show. Ironically, it's an event organised by the same channel. Once I get back, I will start looking at some scripts seriously," she says.
Daljit says that Anuj Saxena, who produced the serial has been encouraging her to look beyond the serial. "I remember the day after he got to know that the serial was going off air, he met me. I was really surprised at how calmly he had accepted the decision. In fact, I asked him whether he is really so calm or that's a pretence. But he told me that such ups and downs are part of an actor's life and one should learn to deal with it. I am doing just that," she concludes.
