Bollywood Bytes Interview
CB: would it be right to call Ektaa Kapoor your mentor? She seems to be the only maker who believes in and promotes you…
Natasha: Ektaa has been a big support to me. I started with the Balaji TV show ‘Kabhi souten Kabhi Saheli’ and went on to do films with her. But more than Ektaa, I would call shobha Aunty my mentor. She helps me take all my decisions and is like my mother, giving me all the right advice. I feel like a part of their family.
CB: Is that the reason you are only doing Balaji films?
I would love to announce that I am open to outside banners too, If it helps. I am not just a Balaji product. I am also doing e. Niwas’ love triangle titled 11p.m.
CB: You are not a bombshell like Bipasha or a gaon ki gori like Gracy Singh. Where do you fit without an image?
The fun is about doing something without being known as anything. I would like the image of an actress who can do hot roles and play a simpleton.
CB: Stories about Tusshar and you were circulating…
That’s ridiculous! This is the first time I have heard them. Tusshar and I have a comfortable working rapport and are friends- that’s all!
CB: How do you feel about Ektaa achieving so much at such a young age?
It’s commendable and very inspiring. When I see how her hard work has taken her places, I am inspired to work harder. I learn a lot from her. She’s not only a wonderful friend but also someone I can look up to.
CB: What are you looking forward to after Krishna Cottage?
There’s a project with Balaji, Koi Aapsa with aftab; and the e.Niwas’ project is interesting too. Personally, nothing is happening in my life currently - those things can wait. Once I achieve something, everyone will be after me. Right now, I am concentrating on my career. With age on my side, I want to make good use of the time I have on hand.
