Karishma Sharma is all set
to conquer digital space again with her upcoming show Hum. The actress, who is
extremely thankful to Ekta Kapoor for launching her, will romance Kushal Tandon
in the show.
Here are the excerpts from
the conversation:
Tell us about your
character in Hum...
I am in love with my
character. I am playing Eisha in the show. The best thing I like about her is
that she is not conscious about what she is doing. Eisha is over-ambitious and
if you are over-ambitious you don’t think much before doing anything. You can
go to any lengths to get powerful. So I think that’s one thing I loved about my
character that she will do anything to get what she wants. It could lead her
anywhere- good or bad, but it takes a lot of courage to do such things I feel.
If you do something wrong you can’t sleep at night peacefully, but my character
can do wrong and yet sleep at night peacefully. So yeah, it's quite thrilling
in a way.
How much do you relate
yourself to the character?
Except the fact that
Karishma is not over-ambitious like Eisha, rest everything I can relate to my
character -- she is bold, fun-loving and chilled out.
How was your experience
working with Kushal Tandon in Hum?
Working with him was lots
of fun. He is a very funny person. He keeps tricking me and troubling me--- but
all in good space. He gets a lot of positive energy on the set. Actually, he
keeps joking and making everyone laugh. He even gets us food, so I think he is
a great co-actor. In fact, even Riddhima and I bonded well during the shoot.
She is not here currently for promotions as she is doing Khatron Ke Khiladi in
Argentina, but we are missing her a lot. She and I have become best
friends.
When is your film Hotel
Milan releasing?
I am looking forward to
doing a lot of films. Hotel Milan releases on September 14. It’s a very different role than whatever I have done
so far--- speaking in a UP dialect. Also, I am doing Comedy Circus which is
something new for me. I am trying hard.
Any Bollywood actor in
your mind you want to get paired with?
I want to get paired with
Ranveer Singh. He has great energy. I love his aura. I love his acting. And
what attracts me the most towards him is his flexibility to do different roles.
You often post bold
pictures on social media. Aren't trolls at the back of your mind?
I don’t think trolls can
affect me ever if I get affected by trolls, I don’t think I will survive in
this industry. There are people in your day-to-day life also who troll you and
say nasty things about you--- and you can’t care. People are jealous, they
cannot or just can’t see others around them happy. I have come from nowhere and
nobody has helped me to be where I am, so why do I care what others have to say
about me? I would definitely listen to my mother. But trolls whom I don’t even
know, I give a f**k.
You think Hum will be successful?
Hum has romance and drama,
it’s quite entertaining. I am sure it will be a hit.
