Amrita, are we going to see the sweetest ehenji ever in Bollywood once Aisha hits the screen?
I hope so (laughs). Shefali Thakur, the character that I enact in Aisha, is so very sweet and cute. In fact to get the accent right for someone who was a ‘chote shehar ki ladki’, I had to actually train myself a lot on my diction. Her behaviour is very adorable and things that she says are so very funny. She is very loveable and it was endearing to be living this character. Because of these traits, even though I play a ‘behenji’ with a ‘choti’ and all, I could look cute with all those rosy cheeks. As I understand, you are pretty much aware about the world of fashion. So playing someone who is totally ignorant must have been fun, right? She was very fun to play and as you rightly say, it was mainly because of the way the character was written. Of course, after seeing myself in the mirror with that long ‘choti’, I used to go like ‘Oh my God, when would I come out if it’. Did that eventually happen? Yes, once my character went through a makeover in the film. This is when I get to wear goo
