Chandigarh: Working for a serial that means ‘the better half’, these two young stars promise a fresh lead in their serials. As Sudeepa Singh and Ajay Krish, leading actors of Zee TV’s ongoing soap ‘Ardhangani’ were in the city today, it was the lure to play something different that brought them in the soap, they said.
Born and brought up in Amritsar, Sudeepa is purely inclined to her cultural Punjabi roots and acting to her happened by chance. “I went for an audition for Zee TV’s antakshari two years back and got selected. After that, there was no looking back and after a stint in a serial by Sony titled ‘Kabhi toh nazar milao’, Ardhangani for Zee finally happened,” she said. Well, participation in college youth festivals from Guru Nanak Dev University had always been her interests and she always came out with flying colours, she added.
For Mumbai based Ajay Krish, acting was the sole motto of his life and he was trained enough for it. His acting stint in an American feature film ‘Dreams’ was screened at Cannes Film festival and he learnt the nuances of acting from New York University.
“It’s a complete mixture of all emotions in the character I play. The person relates closely to every individual’s life,” he said.
Having acted in serial ‘Mamta’, Ajay feels a serial dies a natural death when it is stretched beyond a certain limit. “Creativity is like a rubber band, if you stretch it more, it will break at a point,” he said adding that this was the reason why his serial ‘Mamta’ had to be stopped on Zee.
A story of a Bengali girl Kangana, played by Sudeepa Singh, ‘Ardhangani’ showcases a romantic saga with all the ingredients of a daily soap. The time slot of 11pm also suits them well, as the serial is catching up, they said.
Will Bollywood happen for this fresh acting couple? “We are waiting and watching if movies finally happen,” echoed the duo.
