From Jassi Jaissi Koi Nahin, which ran for three years, to The Ba***ds of Bollywood… it’s been quite an interesting journey, hasn’t it?
It’s funny how life comes full circle! Back in the Jassi days, we literally had to hide me from the public eye because they didn’t want to reveal Jassi’s real identity until the very end. And now, with The Ba***ds of Bollywood, it’s been a similar thrill — audiences had to watch the whole story unfold before that big finale moment landed. As an actor, you give your all to every role, and when you see such a thunderous response from viewers, it just feels completely worth it!
What have been some of the better responses to your character?
The responses have honestly been so heartwarming! People have told me they didn’t see my character coming — that twist caught them off guard — and that surprise made it fun for them and for me too. The excitement around the finale, when everything clicked together, was just incredible. Those reactions are truly the best reward for any actor!
What was it like to be directed by Aryan Khan?
There’s always a certain energy and freshness when someone directs for the first time, and Aryan really brought that to every scene. At the same time, he was so well-prepared and clear about his vision, which made it easy for us as actors to explore our characters freely. Being part of someone’s first directorial journey and watching it come alive on screen is always a special experience.
Where would you place The Ba***ds of Bollywood among your body of work?
The Ba***ds of Bollywood definitely holds a special place in my journey. Every project I’ve done has taught me something new — and this one did too. The story, the twists, the way audiences connected with it — and seeing my Instagram fill up with memes and reactions — made it stand out. It’s the kind of role that challenged me in a really motivating way, surprised people, and gave me the joy of being part of something truly memorable. It’s definitely one of those projects I’ll always look back on fondly.
Isn’t it a little odd for someone as young as you to be playing the mother of a 30-year-old?
[Laughs] I can see why some might find that surprising! But as an actor, it’s never really about age — it’s about the story and the character. Playing the mother of a 30-year-old on screen is just another facet of my journey. Honestly, it’s quite fun to explore different roles and relationships. At the end of the day, it’s the depth and authenticity you bring to a character that matters, not the numbers on your birthday cake!
What do we see you in next? Are you happy with the roles coming your way?
Yes, there are lots of exciting things on the horizon, and I’m really happy! Audiences will next see me in Border 2, releasing in January 2026. Some other projects are still under wraps, so I’d say — keep yourselves braced! It’s going to be a fun ride, and I can’t wait for everyone to see what’s coming next.
