00:00Yes, yes. Sandhya Rati, Sandhya Bhabhi, Sandhya. I am so used to with the name. So, it feels
00:11great definitely. When I joined that show, I didn't have that much confidence on my acting
00:20capabilities, on my talent. But while doing that show, I got to do so many scenes.
00:27Because of being in front of the camera every day, especially by playing such a challenging
00:31character, my confidence level boosted a lot. Because Sandhya didn't give confidence to
00:37everyone. I mean, a lot of girls have appeared for civil services. She has played a very
00:41inspirational role. Even I couldn't touch her. So, somewhere or the other, my confidence
00:46boosted as an actor. I got more confidence on my talent. So, during that show, I got
00:52a chance to work with such great actors. I got a chance to work with such great technicians.
00:59The result of which I see today. I mean, our DOP Mr. Sudesh, Mr. Sadasar. I mean, coming
01:06on the right path, speaking the right dialogue, keeping the emotions. The technique of acting,
01:14especially in television, I have got such a good training for that. At that time itself,
01:21I don't know. It wasn't a big thing for me. Today, when I see new actors and I see
01:26that, wow, I got to learn so much during a show. I got a chance to work with such great
01:31people.
01:37Look, I don't think that you are a typecast. Definitely, people, because you get used
01:43to seeing that. But it's not that I have only got that role. I played the role of Sandhya
01:49Patwardhan in Mahashivratri. I played the role of Mausmi in Tee Tom Bani. So, otherwise,
01:55filmmakers wouldn't have been able to imagine me in that role. But it's that I got the
02:00role of an inspector, the role of a strong character. I did a web series called Khalala
02:05in which a lot of people liked my role. That was the role of a lawyer. I also enjoyed doing
02:10that. So, I got all kinds of roles. It's in your hands to choose what you want to do.
02:18But the best thing was that I came out as an artist. Everyone saw me as a great artist.
02:26It was such a successful show that everyone trusted my acting capabilities, my talent.
02:33So, there's nothing more than that. I got the role, that's important. How I got it
02:39doesn't matter. But I got a lot of work. But I was a little busy in my life. I had to
02:44learn new things in my life. I had to work on myself. So, I was fond of classical dance
02:50training since childhood. I fulfilled my dream when I grew up. So, I was giving time to
02:55my son who was younger than me. So, that's why I did less work.
03:02I would like to say that I really wanted to get a negative role. Because my dancing career
03:20and my family life, I didn't want to start with a full-fledged show. I didn't want to
03:26become a protagonist and if I get a negative role, it will take at least 20-22 days.
03:33Now, I have to work for 30 days as well. So, that's why I was shifting. Obviously,
03:38you get more chances to try negative roles. That's why Sandhya Patwardhan's supernatural
03:47drama had a negative role in it. I was a ghost as well. That was a big reason for me to do
03:51this. I wanted to get a negative role after this. But I couldn't. I got a few offers
03:58and everyone said that my face looks very innocent. And we want to cast you in the protagonist
04:03rather than as a negative one.
04:05No, nothing. It was just once I went to BCL before Kavach and it was an amazing experience.
04:19I got to know more about cricket by participating in it.
04:24We made two or three episodes of Riya Zulmir. It was made by my husband, Rohit.
04:30I got an idea and a concept in Rohit's mind. He said, give it to me at that time.
04:34We had just finished the climate shoot. So, I was thinking of a digital play.
04:44Rohit had time, I had time, our friend Sameer had time and we had time.
04:50After that, I was pregnant and I couldn't do it. It was very hectic.
04:56So, we did only three episodes and then we didn't do it.
04:59So, it's not like a web series. We made it with a few friends.
05:06It was not like a commercial angle. There was no commitment.
05:13When there is a commercial thing, there is also a commitment.
05:19When there is a friendship thing, there is also a commitment.
05:21So, it was like that. But I enjoyed doing it.
05:29Oh my God! No, no.
05:31I don't want to direct. My husband is a very good director.
05:34So, I don't want to go in direction.
05:36Yes, if time comes in life, I would like to go in writing.
05:42In the remake, I think it is such a beautiful show.
05:47And it is there on Disney+.
05:50So, why should I tease an iconic show?
05:57I think its ending was very beautiful. Its beginning was very beautiful.
06:01So, I think everyone given their best.
06:04And it should not be teased.
06:07Because it is iconic and it should be iconic.
06:10I would prefer to play different roles in life.
06:15If given a choice.
06:21Really? I don't think so.
06:24Because I feel in Mangal Lakshmi, I got a portrayal role which is completely opposite to Sandhya.
06:32And it was a very difficult task.
06:35Otherwise, if everything is like Sandhya, then what is the meaning of doing another show?
06:44So, every character has a different understanding.
06:47There are different lines.
06:48The script is different.
06:50And an actor, the whole team, writing team, everything.
06:54The way things are made.
06:57So, it is very beautiful.
06:59I think Mangal is very inspirational in itself.
07:01And it is a very beautiful role.
07:03And I have a different energy in it.
07:06And I love this role so much.
07:14I am already a strong person.
07:16That's why I am able to do a strong character at the age of 23.
07:23So, I was already strong.
07:26Delhi girl, Bindas.
07:30That's why I was a good cast for the show Diya Aur Baati Hum.
07:35That fighting qualities.
07:37I was a judo student in college.
07:39So, I think I was a good cast for the show Diya Aur Baati Hum rather than being a very good actor.
07:45I became a very good actor after performing Sandhya.
07:49But I did theatre in Delhi.
07:53I struggled for 3-4 years in Delhi.
07:59From 2006 to 2010.
08:02So, that time also taught me a lot.
08:05Then in 2011, I got Sandhya.
08:07I got Deepika Sandhya.
08:09So, it was not like it was my first assignment.
08:11No, I did lot of ads in Delhi.
08:13I did lot of episodic shows in Delhi.
08:16Whatever work I used to get in Delhi.
08:18But people recognized my talent in Delhi also.
08:21They used to give me lot of respect.
08:23I used to pack up on time.
08:26In Delhi, I used to shoot for 2-3 days.
08:29But I used to leave at 9.
08:31My director used to respect me a lot.
08:33And my coordinators.
08:35So, I really worked hard.
08:38I am a learner.
08:40I keep on learning.
08:41I keep on exploring.
08:42So, this is the thing.
