EXCLUSIVE: Sanaya Irani: If I had to make a shift to films, I would have done while I was at my peak on TV
Sanaya Irani, in an exclusive chat with Pinkvilla, reveals that her doing Ghost does not necessarily mean she is shifting to films, it is all about the kind of script she gets. Read her exclusive chat.
Sanaya Irani rose to fame as Gunjan in Miley Jab Hum Tum and went on to play Khushi Kumari Gupta in Iss Pyaar Ko Kya Naam Doon. The actress has been one of the most loved names on Television. Sanaya is someone who is completely unabashed and doesn't mind speaking her mind. In an exclusive interview with PINKVILLA, Sanaya opens up on her film Ghost, how did it happen and also revealed what kind of work she is looking forward to.
"It is not about the right project. Everyone thinks that I am moving into films because this is the step and that I am done with Television. But, this actually happened very organically. I was doing TV, I was very happy doing TV, I got offers for films while I was doing TV as well. So, if I had to make the shift, I would have done while I was at my peak on TV. I have been on TV for 10 years and it is no more the same. TV doesn't have the kind of work I want to do. I realized that it has happened because it is swiftly shifting to the web. The kind of work I want to do is shifting to the web and hence, I took a back seat and then Zindabad came to me where I worked with Vikram Bhatt. I think he loved it, and hence he offered me Ghost and it has turned out to be better than my expectations," Sanaya shared.
She also revealed that it took her nearly 10-15 days to warm up to the new style of working. "I took 10-15 days to warm up to it. An actor is an actor, you ask me to overdo or underplay it, I can do it. It is just that I was used to a certain kind of work for 10 years, I at least need 10 days to change that style. Vikram told me that I have the most expressive eyes and I don't need to do much but just keep it subtle. It took me a while to undo what I had done for long."
