Mumbai: Dimple Jhangiani is not one to mince words. Unlike most of her contemporaries, the actress who plays Barkat in Beintehaa believes she is almost always politically incorrect. She admits that she loves playing the vamp who is out to dupe a rich family (in Beintehaa) its a pleasant break from the behenji lead role. <\/p>\n
She says, I played the innocent, sympathy-gaining, glycerin-using lead, dressed in a sari and mangalsutra for a long time. Thankfully, my recent shows gave me the opportunity to do something different. In Pammi Pyarelal I got to wear short skirts and be a modern girl like I am off-screen. Beintehaa is a bit of a challenge. I am required to give vamp-like expressions, but my director says that my face is too innocent for that, so I have to make an extra effort at bringing out the right expressions. <\/p>\n
While the rest of the cast has been shooting together for a long time, Dimple is a recent addition to the show. She says that she has made an effort to bond with the cast and tries to be cordial with everyone. <\/p>\n
She says, Suchitra (Pillai) Maam and Naved Aslam Sir are sweethearts. They always make me feel comfortable on the sets. I also have a lot of fun with Harshad Arora and Vivek Madan. Harshad is sweet and when we have scenes together, I wink at him and he bursts out laughing in between shots. I do not interact much with Preetika Rao. Although Ive heard from other actors that she is insecure and jealous. <\/p>\n
Though Dimple does not get along with all her co-stars, one co-star who has now turned into her BFF is Adaa Khan with whom she acted in Amrit Manthan. The duo played sisters in that show. <\/p>\n
Dimple says, I am the kind of person who goes out of my way to make my co-stars feel comfortable. I do not like to fight or get into arguments with my co-stars. In fact, on days that I dont shoot, a lot of co-stars text me saying they missed their daily dose of laughter! <\/p>\n
Speaking about her camaraderie with Adaa she says, When there were times that we both wanted to wear similar kind of outfits, Id tell her that she can carry on and that Id look for something else. It started out that way and soon we became friends. Just this week, I was shooting in Madh Island and there werent many food options in the area. Adaa drove all the way till there and brought me my favourite butter chicken and naan. After I left Amrit Manthan, Ankita Sharma replaced me. Both Ankita and Adaa couldnt see eye-to-eye they hate each other till date. <\/p>\n
A former advertising professional she says, I have studied advertising and used to work at O&M. But soon I got bored of a nine-to-five job and started looking for alternatives. Luckily, my parents have always trusted my decision. Even if I come home at five in the morning after my shoot, they dont question me. <\/p>\n
The actress is currently single but says that she would love to get hitched soon. In fact, she does not mind giving up her career after marriage. <\/p>\n
She elaborates, I was dating someone for seven years but have been single for a while now! <\/p>\n
