TV actress Shubhangi Atre's ultimate dream is coming into Bollywood. She said in a recent interview that she'd like to do the sort of earthy and real roles that are currently portrayed by Konkona Sen Sharma.
There has been no shortage of TV stars who have made it big in Bollywood, and the biggest of course is Shah Rukh Khan.
Says Shubhangi: "I really like the kind of roles that even Nandita Das does for that matter. I am more into art movies and offbeat films. Films like 'Rudaali', 'Dasvidaniya', 'Wake Up Sid' and 'Paa' are more like my taste. Even though these were commercial films, there was something in these that touched the heart."
Asked if she had received any such offers for the big screen yet, Shubhangi said, "I am getting offers. I got an offer and I auditioned for it. I am waiting for a response so I can't talk about the details as of now."
In Do Hanson Ka Jodaa Shubhangi a dreamy girl, who is married off to a bespectacled simpleton, played by actor Shaleen Bhanot.
"I am really happy with the cast and crew of this show. The biggest thing to make a show or film a success is that all actors, especially lead actors should gel well. Otherwise, the work atmosphere will not be good. But I have great fun with all of them."
