I would like to play a character which is completely unlike me in real

The beautiful actor Rashmi Gupta,
who was earlier seen on the popular
Life OK show- Mere Rang Mein
Ranganewali, has recently joined
the cast of Yeh Vaada Raha on Zee
TV. Let's find out more in a candid
conversation with her.
Rashmi, can you tell us something
about you passion for acting?
I come from a small town where
people are of a traditional mind set
and do not think big. I took an
initiative to move to Mumbai and
work hard to make a fine name. I
am glad to be a part of an industry
where I am loved, respected and
treated like family.
How has the industry treated you
so far?
I feel fortunate enough to have
received love and respectful and
have no regret with the kind of
work I have done in the past. It has
been a great journey so far.
Generally speaking, what kind of
roles do you enjoy doing?
I would love to play a character
which is completely unlike me in
real life, so that I can take up the
challenge of justifying it. That
would give me exposure to learn
more. Also, I would love to portray a
negative character.
What are your aspirations in this
industry?
I feel that everyone should aspire
to set a benchmark, to prove all
those people wrong who spoke
negative about you. While, people
think that one cannot survive in this
industry with a clean image, I aspire
to do some great work with a clean
image and prove them wrong.
What are your hobbies apart from
acting?
I like dancing, cooking and
shopping!
