Bollywood will have to wait: Wasna
doweshowbellyad=0;
Wasna Ahmed (TOI Photo) In her debut project (that���s Kasautii...) she got to work with small screen superstars Hiten Tejwani, Shweta Tiwari and Ronit Roy.
What has that experience been like? ���I used to watch Kasautii... When I was chosen to play a role in the show, I was over the moon. Everyone���s been very supportive and helped me perform better,��� says Wasna cheerily.
A student of commerce, Wasna is still in college and juggles studies and shooting comfortably.
And where did acting figure in her scheme of things? ���I have been interested in acting since childhood. I love acting and dancing. I have attended theatre and dance workshops in Kolkata,��� she elaborates.
Will the petite lady work outside Balaji Telefilms? ���If something really good is offered to me, then I might. But I will ask my producer before committing to any other production house,��� she says earnestly. Does she relate at all to the characters she plays? ���I am as innocent as Kinjal and talkative as Dhara,��� laughs Wasna.
Quiz her about the increased competition and her optimistic take is, ���Competition should be taken very positively. More competition means better work and more opportunities.���
For someone who hero worships Shah Rukh Khan and Hrithik Roshan on the big screen and Rajeev Khandelwal on television, a per-fect film would be a ���complete romantic one with Hrithik Roshan,���she drools. But wait, Bollywood is not on her priority list as of now. ���For the time being I want to concentrate on television. I want my shows to be successful and be on-air for a very, very long time,��� chips in Wasna.
Here���s hoping so too!
