Ashi Singh who plays Yasmine in the TV show Aladdin: Naam Toh Suna Hi Hoga recently opened up about the kind of roles she wants to do. Ashi's ongoing fantasy show is coming to an end on February 6. However the actress has shot for her last day already, a few days back. While sharing her plans post the show the actress went on revealing that she isn't comfortable doing roles which are older to her age but she doesn't mind portraying negative roles onscreen.
Ashi in an exclusive interview with us, shares her apprehensions about playing a character older in age, "As an actor I would not like to play a character which is older than my age because I belive whatever character I play, it ultimately starts reflecting in me. I start behaving like the character after some point of time as my thinking is in line with my character's thought process. So If I play an older character for a long time it will eventually start reflecting in me. Hence I am not comfortable playing a character which is not of my age."

Although the young actress doesn't mind playing a negative character going against her personality, "I really want to do a negative role now. My face is very innocent, sweet and simple that's what people say. So I really want to explore if I can play a negative role convincingly or not. Nobody comes to me with such roles. Hence I would love to do a negative part and see if I can pull that off or not?"

Talking about the roles Ashi would like to do now, the actress said, "Before doing Aladdin and playing Yasmine I had really blocked myself and had given very limited options to myself that I will do only THIS. There were a lot of roles that I said No to. But after playing Yasmine I realised I should try new things. Because until I do it I will not know if I can do a part or not. I genuinely didn't think that I would enjoy playing Yasmine this much. Now I am open for anything that is new and unique."
