Sounia Kapur is glad that she has ended up working in a serial which she really wanted to work in. Sounia will be seen in Sony’s ‘Jeete Hain Jiske Liiye’ in a glamorous role.
Q: How does it feel to be back on television after a little while?
A: It feels nice, of course. But I don’t think I was away from television. My last serial was 'Kahiin to Hoga' which wrapped up in February and there was only a gap of a few months.
Q: What had you been doing in the break?
A: During the few months that I was free, I was shooting for my Persian film and also did a few advertisements on television.
Q: Were you anchoring stage shows abroad? Is it one of the reasons for your staying away from television?
A: Yes, I was on a world tour anchoring stage shows. This also led to being away from television for a bit.
Q: Why are you so choosy about your roles?
A: I’m not choosy but I like to do good roles. I take up roles that attract me and the ones which I can identify with.
Q: What led you to taking up Jeete Hain Jiske Liiye?
A: There are many reasons for it. I had never worked with Diya and Tony (Singh) and wanted to work with them. I had also been watching the serial from the first day and when I saw a few episodes, I wanted to work in the serial. Moreover I was also keen on working with Renuka (Shahane), so as soon as the role was offered to me I took it up.
