Verve|September 2015
Clad in simple salwar kurtas or draped in sequinned saris, the bahus in popular small-screen sagas swiftly become household names as they uphold values and keep the family together. Krystle Dsouza, Pratyusha Banerjee, Sonia Balani and Radhika Madan, who have assayed the roles of the ideal daughters-in-law on television, are yet to tie the knot in real life. In an interaction with Zaral Shah, the girls speak about their dreams for a perfect wedding.

Weddings Dreams Of Popular TV Actresses

Krystle D’souza, 25

Jeevika Viren Singh Vadhera in Ek Hazaaron Mein Meri Behna Hai (EHMMBH) and Sakshi Karan Modi in Ek Nayi Pehchaan.

“Seeing Myself On Posters All Over The City For The First Time brought tears to my eyes. That is something every girl dreams of — and without even trying, my dreams had turned into reality.”

“I Got Into Acting By Chance​. Ekta Kapoor spotted me outside my college and gave me my first break as Jeevika. Initially, I found it difficult to play the role of the elder sister in EHMMBH as I am a younger sibling.But eventually I became a lot like her; though I do not think I will ever wear salwar suits and saris in my everyday life — nor will I cry as much as Jeevika or even Sakshi did on screen.”

“It’s Lovely When People Recognise You As Your Smallscreen Alter Ego. We work in an industry where people connect with us because of our characters. Yet, being recognised by the audience in real life as who you really are has a more personal touch to it. Thankfully, due to magazines and social media, most people get to know the real us.”

“My Ideal Partner Must Be Mature. He should be someone who will also be a friend. I will be content if he is someone I can look up to and if he keeps me happy and motivated.”

“The First Romantic Scene I Did​ was a sequence we shot at Filmcity for EHMMBH. My on-screen husband Viren (Karan Tacker) and I were stranded on the road in the rain and we took shelter in a hut by the road. I was dressed in a blue chiffon sari and was freezing in it. Performing these scenes isn’t easy.”
