Do you remember your first-ever audition?
“I don’t remember my first ever audition but I remember the audition I gave for the show Kittu because, for the rest of the projects, I didn’t really audition. I was cast because I was a part f Gujarati theatre and Gujarati people were casting. But Kittu was the first role that I bagged through an audition. It was really bad I did not have any makeup on as I did not expect to be there. I did not even give a good audition and I don’t know how I got selected but it all turned t great.”
Do you remember the first moment when you felt you were famous?
“I think that also has to be after Kittu. At that time, there was a lot of hoarding publicity and there were a lot of them for Kittu. Once I saw a train and on the whole train, Kittu’s poster which my face on it, was on it. I didn’t feel famous but I felt really good.”
Do you remember your first pay cheque?
“Yes, definitely. My first pay cheque was when I did a play and we used to get cover for it. I got 650 Rs for that.”
Do you remember the first fan moment?
“When I was doing theatre, I must have been 18 or 19 years old and only 3 plays old. There was this guy who had watched all my plays and after the play, he used to come to me, give me a red flower and go. After the 3rd time, he confessed his love for me and he even said he wishes to marry me.”
Do you remember your first friend in the industry?
“I have a lot of friends. I am friends with the female cast of the show Sajan Re Jhooth Matt Bolo, in this show too I have made friends. I am a shy person and I have really few friends in the industry.”
