Happy Children’s Day to you. What usually makes you happy?
Thank you! My happiness lies in small things when birds chirp, and when I see peacocks dancing in the rain. I love it when I rest on my mother’s lap, and when I see beautiful flowers, I like sunset and love visiting beaches.
Any lovable memory of Childen’s Day that you can tell.
When I was 4 years old, my father and mother gave me a special surprise on Children’s Day. They took me to an orphanage. On that day, I celebrated Children’s Day with all the kids in the orphanage. And believe me, that was the most memorable Children’s Day of my life.
At this small age, you have aspired to act and are doing a good job. How did you get this special zeal for acting at this tender age?
Thank you so much for the compliment. I have never learned to act as such. My mom says that I was very expressive when I was one and a half years old. I usually understand my scene, and according to it, I keep myself in the scene and act based on that.
What would you like to be known for being a child artist?
Being a child artist, I never compromise on discipline. I never let anyone complain about my dedication and commitment towards work. I try to be polite and respectful to everyone on the set. I am kind towards animals on the set. I must be remembered as an obedient child actor.
What do you like the best in the role of Jagriti that you play?
When I started my journey as Jagriti, I was a little scared. But at the same time, I was excited too. The best part of being Jagriti is shooting with a lot of animals. I never got a chance to play with animals. But being Jagriti, most of my scenes are with animals, and I really love it.
What do you aspire for this Children’s Day?
On this Children’s Day, I want all the children of our country to be happy, and safe and celebrate the day very well. I want them to be educated also.
Happy Children’s Day!!
