Television actress Tanisha Mehta, who has been part of shows like Shubh Laabh Aapkey Ghar Mein, Lag Jaa Gale, Ikk Kudi Punjab Di, recently made a comeback with the much talked-about Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi season 2.
Fans are appreciating the actress portraying Vrinda in the show for her impressive performance. Tanisha, who shares screen space with
Smriti Irani
for the first time, shared her experience of working with the seasoned actress. In an exclusive chat with Times of India TV, Tanisha narrated her first meeting with Smriti and called her approachable, grounded, and wonderfully creative.
Speaking about their first meeting, Tanisha said, "We first met during the show's narration, where Ektaa ma'am was also present.
While everyone confidently went up to introduce themselves, I was honestly freaking out and super nervous, well, obviously, because she's such a huge public figure. After everyone had met her, she actually came up to me and introduced herself, which felt like such a warm and friendly gesture.
She truly is incredibly approachable, grounded, and wonderfully creative."
When asked about sharing screen space with her, the actress explained, "We haven't shared many scenes together yet, but in the ones we have, she's made it so comfortable and easy to perform with her, allowing the shoot to flow effortlessly.
She's always on point, attentive to both her dialogues and mine, and often comes up with great suggestions that elevate the scene."
She continued, "I am having a great experience working with her. I feel like I'm going to learn a lot from her, and I always look forward to our scenes together. Every time we work, it feels like an opportunity to pick up something new. I am soooo lucky that I get a chance to work with her and share the screen with her. It's a blessing."
In the show, Tanisha's character Vrinda helps Smriti Aka Tulsi after her son gets framed in a hit and run accident case.
