MUMBAI: Daughter of comedian Johnny Lever, Jamie Lever is making her own name in the comedy space. She began her career in 2012 and has since appeared in several shows including Comedy Circus Ke Mahabali and The Kapil Sharma Show. She is a complete entertainer and has time and again proved her mettle.
Jamie also won many hearts with her mimicry of Rakhi Sawant, Kangana Ranaut and Sonam Kapoor. The video had gone viral on social media. Along with her brother Jessey Lever, she is often seen making funny videos on Instagram.
She revealed how her father Johnny Lever prepared her for the career and made her tough to take on the real competitive world of entertainment.
Jamie said, “He was really tough on me because he knew, it’s difficult here and he’s seen the struggle himself. He felt that people will criticise and judge me, they will be hard on me because I am Johnny Lever’s daughter, who’s done 300-400 movies. He very well knew people will be hard on me, so he would say, ‘tu bahar jaane se pehle yahan ro le taaki bahar rona na pade’ (Instead of going out and crying, you cry here first). He made sure that I understood and learnt it the tough way. I cried before saying every joke but I am very happy and thankful that I saw this phase too and because of that experience, I became tough. They say comedy comes from tragedy, so, even I had to suffer a few tragedies but it’s okay.”
Jamie Lever also claimed that she wants to carry forward her father’s legacy and said, “Just like Kapoor khaandaan, I want to make ‘Lever khaandaan.'”
