After doing ad films, one Hindi comic caper and five Tamil films, lead actor of Zaara - Pyar Ki Saugat (Sahara One), Samiksha is currently making waves on television. In this Sanjay Kohli show, she plays a 21-year-old beautiful, sweet- natured and well-mannered girl, belonging to an upper middle class Muslim family. Here's a chat with this beautiful Chandigarh di kudi who prefers to maintain a low profile! How did the pivotal role of Zaara fall in your lap? In the past, I had been approached for many TV shows like Kasamh Se and Dulhan on Zee. But I got scared reading Ekta Kapoor's contract which would have bound me for three years. I preferred to wait for the right project and that's when the producers of Zaara approached me. To begin with, I completely fell for the title of the show and when I went through the script, I found it perfect enough to say 'yes'. For a newcomer on television Zaara is the best launch pad. Tell us one special thing about your role? It gives me ample scope to portray various emotions. How's the atmosphere on the sets? It's very healthy. I am getting used to the hectic schedules. Don't you feel there's a lot of tear shedding on TV? Yes there is. When I have to do so, once in a while I do cry naturally but otherwise I use glycerine. You have done films before. How different is it working for television? In films, emotional scenes are limited to 10% but on TV 90% of the scenes are melodramatic Serials are slotted in a particular format while in films there is fine balance of emotions. Also in art films you get very realistic roles to play. Are you still getting film offers from south and Bollywood? I have signed a Hindi movie but can't talk about it right now, as I have just shot for a schedule and the film has got stuck! Talking about offers from south, yes I'm being approached. Which city do you prefer, Chandigarh or Mumbai? Chandigarh is the cleanest city and Mumbai is the dirtiest one (laughs) What about your personal life? No comments!
