Talking about working with young social media influencers and Gen-Z, Jasmine said, “I am not ashamed of saying I am not a Gen-Z, it was my first time so close with them, and I enjoyed it. It was an experience to see how they think, they are go-getters and not shy of anything. They are ready to cross boundaries, but certain things were also a shock to me. Culturally, morally, I come from a different generation, but I was getting to know and understand it, so I enjoyed the process.”

While Jasmine thinks the show makes one sharper to judge personalities. “I will not call the journey easy, it’s a very difficult show psychologically. It’s a very smart concept, 24/7, you are thinking something, it was very tricky. Those 12 days of shooting were mentally very difficult. Yes, it does teach you how to gauge people’s personalities. Otherwise, I don’t have that grasp of people in life.”

Jasmine also opened up about feeling stuck in life at this moment. She revealed that uncertainty around her next project has been bothering her. “Honestly, currently my headspace is not great. This is the first time it has happened to me in the last few years that we have finished almost half the year, and I don’t know what I am going to do next. This is the first time in the last 10 years I have again felt stuck in life and don’t know what is next. Should I take up something that is coming to me, or should I keep looking for what I want to do? I am just in that dilemma, praying every day that God gives me clarity.”

On the work front, Jasmine is looking to explore a career in Bollywood. She wants to start giving look tests and wishes to shoot every day of her life. Other than this, the actress is also looking at starting her fashion brand and is currently researching it.
