Woh Disha ki kahaani

The young actress Disha Parmar stole the hearts of television audience with her role as the bubbly Pankhudi from ‘Pyaar Ka Dard Hain Meeta Meeta Pyaara Pyaara’ is back as Jhanvi in Zee’s “Woh Apna Sa”.

The transformation from a debut actress trying to find a foot-hold in the industry to the confident girl who looks glamorous it has been a successful ride for Disha. Her interview gives us a peek into the making of Jhanvi in her new project.

What made you agree to this project?
This is a very different story which hasn't been shown on television yet, about how you can still fall in love with someone else after getting married. So that's what attracted me. Even my role is different. Jhanvi is fun and full of adventure.

Can you share more about the character of Jhanvi?
Jhanvi is very confident and adventurous; she is someone who does not believe in the concept of praying and asking God for something. And I am exactly the same, so I pretty much relate to the character.

How different is Jhanvi from Pankhudi?
Jhanvi is a very different character compared to Pankhudi in the way of talking, the way of tackling problems is completely in contrast. And, Jhanvi talks a lot unlike Pankhudi!

‘Woh Apna Sa’ airs at 10 pm slot that is already occupied by ‘Kasam-Tere Pyaar Ki’ and ‘Ishqbaaaz’. Aren’t you scared that the tough competition might affect your show as well?
I think those two are great shows, which people are loving right now. I just hope people watch ‘Woh Apna Sa too’ and like it.

In your debut and current show, hero’s name is “Aditya”. Did you ever think why “Adi” is not leaving Disha?
Yeah...Isn’t that crazy! Both the heroes on my show are Adi. I think my real life hero will also be Aditya! Ha-ha!

What do you have to say about your co-star Ssudeep and Ridhi?
Both Ssudeep and Ridhi are fabulous actors. They are very sincere and passionate about their work. So, I feel when you have a chance to work with such dedicated actors, you get to learn a lot from them.

How is working with Alchemic Productions?
I am very happy to be a part of Siddharth's show. He has done some great shows in the past and I hope our association gives good results. He is fabulous, and it is my first association with him. I hope that I we work together in the future too.

If given a chance would you chose Nisha’s role over Jhanvi?
I think Nisha's character is very complex and something great for an actor to do. But I think I am happy to be Jhanvi.
