Karishma Tanna is enjoying the success her OTT series Scoop is getting.
The actor gets into the shoes of crime journalist Jigna Vora, who was wrongly jailed in connection with a murder.
Karishma, who has been a part of showbiz for 18 years, will probably give Amitabh Bachchan a run for punctuality.
The phone interview is scheduled for noon, and the phone rings as soon as the clock strikes 12.
“Vidya Balan ma’am took my number and called me the other day. I found that really sweet because that shows how secure an actor you are, and how proud you feel of a fellow actor. I’m the same, you know. Whenever I see any actor or actress doing well, if I don’t have the number, I DM them on Instagram, and say you’ve done such a great job,”
What is the best part about playing a crime journalist?
The best part is that I got to know and experience so much about journalism because I did not have much of an idea what crime reporters are, what their work is.
I gained a lot of knowledge about journalism.
Director Hansal Mehta said that it was the hunger for your role that worked in your favour during your audition. How important was it for you to bag Scoop?
It was very important because it’s a very strong role, a real story.
There are so many layers to this character. She’s aspirational, ambitious, hungry... and how she balances between her personal and professional life.
She’s a single independent woman, the breadwinner of the family, and then how she goes to the jail... the reporter becomes the reporter.
