Gulki has portrayed really strong characters over her acting career, and she inspires a lot of young girls.
TellyChakkar got in touch with the Maddam Sir actress to talk about what is new in her life, the new year, and more.
The show has gone through some changes, and we have seen some exits and some entrances. What is happening on the show and how do you feel about it?
Story wise, we have some interesting twists and turns coming up. Bhavika has left the show. I am very happy for her professionally and personally, because her character wasn’t progressing much, and that has definitely made an impact on the screen dynamics. But even that is alright because you know what happens in a daily soap after a point, that the everyday work schedule and the pressure of the telecast that other things start to become invisible after a point. You function in an automated mode where everything is happening without you being very aware of it. But otherwise, it's fun and it’s a comedy show, so we are always laughing.
There is a natural core of a character that you have been playing for a long time now and when you add another layer to it, how do you balance that as an actor?
I think that practice makes you perfect. So initially when I had to play the character of Urmila, it was a little difficult to let go of Haseena and become another character. But now, both the characters and personalities reside in you, like they are part of you. So, this time, the switch was comparatively easy, and Haseena is a character that I have been playing for 700 episodes now. I know her like the back of my hand. And Urmila is just a little more Marathi, and a little more fun version of my own personality. That made the switch easy. It is also fun when you get a break as an actor, it is like a creative break.
Do you have any new year’s traditions or special ways that you celebrate?
This New Year’s, I am just going to sleep, because we have been shooting day and night. I am in no mood to go out anywhere. I want to do a new thing this year. Instead of going crazy at night, I want to wake up early and see the first sunrise, the year’s first one. Yeah, I want to try that. I don’t know if I will wake up or not but I want to try that for sure.
Gulki has definitely aced the role of Haseena Malik, and we can’t wait to see her diversify and see her in more interesting roles.
