SANAYA IRANI ARTICLE IN TIMES OF INDIA 16TH OCT!!

'If Ash and Katrina can do it, why can't I?'

Sanaya Irani is playing a simple, girl next door in Mile Jam Hum Tum, a show based on college romance ' very different from the glamorous role she portrayed in Radha ki Betiyaan kuch kar dikhaingi on NDTV Imagine. She feels that in real life she's completely opposite to the character she plays in the former. 'I'm very loud and bubbly and talkative while Gunjan is not,' she says. But she's happy to do the role because 'due to my fair and pretty looks, many people said that I will not look Indian and will not suit in a salwar kameez ' which is exactly what I'm doing in the show. In a way I wanted to prove a point. If Ash and Katrina can do it, why can't I?' asks the actress who was also playing a commando in Left Right Left for some time. Sanaya Irani, never wanted to get into acting. She was doing her BCom and had a desire to do MBA. But her mom thought otherwise. She felt that Sanaya should try modelling and acting. So for a year she took a break from studies and ventured into modelling. Later auditions and acting happened and she enjoyed it. 'I liked acting but I was not sure how good I was. I had also not enrolled myself into any acting course because I wanted to learn the art my way,' she says. So she started playing character roles and started learning things slowly and steadily. 'I wanted to do a lead role only when I was ready for it. Right now I want to do more of young stuff and perhaps gradually do some saas bahu stuff too,' says the pretty lass who's having a lot of fun on the sets with lots of youngsters around. 'Once the unit members played a prank on me by making me work for three continuous days without a break and then telling me to report to the sets early in the morning at 7 the next day. I was pissed off and I literally screamed at them. When they saw my angry face, they all burst out laughing,' she relates about all the fun she is having on the sets.
