Daily soaps are far from reality: Dipika Samson

Written By Unknown on Senin, 24 Desember 2012 | 21.44

She's been playing a much loved beti and bahu for over two years now in 'Sasural Simar Ka', but her foray in TV was entirely accidental. Life took an interesting twist for Dipika Samson when she gave up a lucrative job as an airhostess for health reasons and went to audition for a TV show, landing the lead role! Excerpts from a chat with her:

An accidental actress

When I resigned from my airline job, I was clueless about what would come my way. My mom was keen that I should try my hand in daily soaps, so I got my portfolio shoot done and auditioned for various shows. After eight months of struggle I got a character role in the mythological show, Devi. I realized early on that a small screen actress, you don't have to take any acting workshops — if you follow the directors, you can learn a lot. That's just what I have done.

Future forward

I'm happy about the roles I got in both the shows that I did. Of course Simar has established me as a face to reckon with on TV. Now as an actress, the challenge for me is to ensure that I don't stereotype myself. After playing the good bahu, now I want to play an urban character, a working woman or even a negative role. For an actress it's challenging to portray a different character from what she's done earlier. As to movies? I have not thought much about taking a leap to Bollywood yet. Television has given me a lot and I'm happy with it for the time being.

Soapy saga

It is really unfortunate that most of daily soaps are far removed from reality. In order to add 'drama' to their existing plots and storylines, producers devise twists and turns, even if it those call for some unreal situations and over the top elements. There are very few good shows like Maryada: Lekin Kab Tak that address real life issues. I would like to take up a show like that in the near future.

Mom and me

I'm very close to my mom. She's my world. I can't stay away from her for more than two days. She's a friend with whom I can share everything. At the same time there's this childish streak in her and has her own wishlist of what can make our lives perfect. It is great to be with her. I am looking forward to have a great time with her on Christmas, provided my director-producer gives me half-day off work.

Love in the air A lot is being talked about my romantic relationship with my co-actor Shoaib Ibrahim. It upset me a lot when this news came out — but, now I'm used to this kind of gossip. I'm just good friends with Shoaib. There's nothing remotely romantic brewing between us!
