I was really nervous as I had to shoot in a salwar kamez, tikka and heavy jewellery. I gave it my best shot. Alok Nath was very happy and complimented me. That gave me confidence. I am still in touch with some of the members of Astitva. I came to Mumbai and met my fiance Akhil Mishra. I have been doing theatre with him since 2005.
My character Doris is the wife of Tushar Bajaj (Mr Bajaj's son). I was lost with so many actors on the sets. Last year, I would muff my lines. But now, if they give me lines one hour before the shoot I am comfortable. I have also learnt to speak Hindi. I enjoy working with my team especially with Sweta Tiwari (Prerna). People know and recognise me by my character Doris. Balaji is the best thing that happened to me. I have learnt the basics of acting from them.
