Excerpts from an Interview:
Your role in Delhii Heights is being talked about a lot.
Delhi Hights is a feel-good film based on an intense relationship. I play Suhana and Jimmy Sheirgill plays Abhi, my husband. The entire film is based in Delhi and the story and characters revolve around the look, feel and air of Delhi. The film also has one more couple played by Rohit Roy and Simone Singh and then there is the ever-charming Om Puri. The film is a thorough entertainer and the audiences are sure to have a good time.
The character you play is a Delhi girl and you have been labelled the same more often than not. Coming from the same background, did it make your job easier?
Well it’s true that I am a Delhi girl, but I don’t want to carry around that label everywhere I go. I live and work in Mumbai and that is the only fact that matters. As for Suhana, yes, she is a simple Delhi girl with modest aspirations in life and I too come from a similar background. Thus it did become easy to associate myself with the character and understand what was needed to portray it successfully.
You are usually associated with peppy and sexy roles, but Delhii Heights has you playing a career- and family-focused city girl. Did you have to do anything special to get that homely look?
The girl Suhana in Delhii Heights gets married in the very first scene and after that, the entire film has her as an enterprising and successful female, completely focused on her ambitions. She looks beautiful yet she is very confident. Although I did not have to do much to look like the character, but the cause of concern was to get the body language right, which happened with relative ease as well.
How were the experiences of working with your co-stars in Delhii Heights?
We had an absolute ball. I don’t remember one day out of our shooting schedule where I faced professional hazards or thought it was getting dull and boring. On the contrary, none of us felt as if we were working. Most of the team was from Delhi, Jimmy and I are staunch Delhites and the whole shoot seemed just like a holiday season in the familiar environment of our home.
Delhi is not known to be a popular spot for shooting films. How different was the experience of shooting there from Mumbai and were there any obstacles or challenges?
Delhi is my hometown and I was ecstatic about shooting there. Yes, the experience was different, because the culture in Delhi is a lot more reserved than in Mumbai. So when you’re out on the streets shooting with all the cameras and equipment, people take notice and the crowds can create a bit of chaos. But end of the day, Delhi was an awesome place to shoot and without the Delhi atmosphere, the film could not have been possible.
Are you satisfied with the kind of work you’ve done thus far as an actor and with the levels of success you have achieved?
Yes, I am absolutely happy with all my roles and movies. I have no regrets whatsoever and I feel that with every film, I grow as an actor and I learn to present my skills in a better way. Currently I am content with the roles I am being offered and I don’t intend to experiment or take risks. As far as success goes my perceptions of it can be different than what others think, so I just need to be satisfied with what ever I’ve done so far.
What films would you be seen in the coming days?
I have a lot of films coming up, there’s Shootout At Lokhandwala, Mithiya, Kuch Love Kucch Drama and Dus Kahaniyaan. I feel the year ahead is going to be really busy and full of positive response for my work.
