You said you had a fangirl moment working with Poonam. How was the experience of working with her?
I have huge respect for Poonam Dhillon ji. Despite being such a successful senior artist, it was an amazing and fun experience to work with her. It didn't feel like I was working with her for the first time.
I bonded with her quite well and we had lots of fun on the set. She has so much experience, when it comes to camera framing, angles, marking etc. I was just so amazed how she used to lead some of us on the set with so much awareness.
What is your experience of working in the Punjabi industry?
I landed
Madhaniyan because I was in touch with the casting company from my first
Punjabi movie, PR. So I feel grateful that my work is getting me more work! To begin with, the Punjabi film industry enriched me with another most beautiful Indian language. I learned Punjabi from scratch, learned to read and write in Gurmukhi scripture so I am aware of the correct pronunciation and feel the emotion behind every word and sentence.
And of course, with language comes a whole new world to discover. I am grateful to the people of Punjab and the Punjabi film industry who have always been so warm and welcoming to me.
What are your upcoming films?
I have done three films here and there are a few more projects lined up which will be announced in the near future.
Are you contemplating working in South films, like a lot of Punjabi actors do?
Of course, I would love to do South films and other Indian regional cinema, too. If I was able to learn and act in Punjabi then I can act in any Indian language.
