Geet Uncovered

Drashti Dhami,who plays Geet,in Geet – Hui Sabse Parayi,gets herself explored in a short chat with IndianExpress.com.

Can you point out some similarities between Drashti and Geet?

(Smiles)Yes both (Drashti and Geet) are girls and we stand for our rights. Apart from this,character-wise,we both are very different. Geet is a very calm sort of a girl while I am a very loud and a talkative girl.

What message,if any,does the show convey?

It is giving out a message saying,that sometimes your decisions probably are not supported by your family,but,if you think you are going in a right direction go ahead with it (the personal decision).

What is one special feeling about working with this show,so far?

Biggest satisfaction about this show for me is the fact that I am performing the lead role and my audience will get something nice to watch.

There is a stiff competition in the GEC segment. Does it scare you about prospects of your show?

Of course,somewhere down the line,you do feel the competition. But,I am not scared,just a bit nervous.
