TellyBuzz in conversation with Krystle Dsouza aka Jeevika of Star Plus' Ek Hazaaron Mein Meri Behna Hain

I did the regular auditions with Star Plus and Cinevistaas and they liked me. Actually I had got a hint that I would be doing a show on Star Plus as the lead when I was doing Kis Desh Mein Hain Mera Dil.

You are playing an out and out positive character of a simple Indian girl. Is it tough?
Frankly speaking the role is not really tough as I had played an Indian girl before. I played the lead in Kahe Naa Kahe on 9X and the role was that of a simple Indian girl.


You and Nia Sharma seem to have a blast on screen. How is your off screen rapport with Nia?
(Laughs) Well, it's more fun off screen. Literally she is like a sister to me where we sit together for food and also I was staying with her for two days when my driver was not well and I could not drive home. I really feel like an older sister or a mother to her. Touch-wood we have a beautiful relation now. She is my savior when the male gang pull my legs as she says 'meri didi ko tang mat karo.' We all four have a blast on the sets.

You have shot in places like Hrishikesh, Chandigarh and Missouri; how has the experience been?
Hrishikesh is really beautiful with its mind blowing scenery. Frankly speaking, paap dhoke aaye hain naya paap karne ke lie (laughs). Every morning we used to get up to beautiful Bhajans and Aarti. It was so serene and peaceful like heaven. I was actually enjoying the weather there where I got up every morning amidst fog and mist when it was intense heat here in Mumbai. We have not shot in Chandigarh yet, I think the shoot will happen sometime in the future.

Any memorable experience so far?
When we were shooting in Hrishikesh, Neha and I used to take a long walk after getting out of the show removing all the make up and stuffs. We just wear goggles and take a long walk just being Krystal and Neha and indulge in some shopping. Actually every day is a beautiful day for us where we used to burn the bonfire and have fun.  

You are back to Star Plus with a show, but this time as the lead, how do you feel?
I feel really happy that I am doing a show again with Star Plus and I am really honored that they have trusted and taken me in their next show as the lead (laughs).
Actually there has been not much preparation being done for the show. The character is very normal and I did not have to work much on the dialect also.


Has the field been tough on you at any point of time?
I was 17 when I did my first show and since I am from a Roman Catholic background I did not have much hold of Hindi as we used to speak in English. It has been really tough for me as for more than a month I was getting a grip on the language. And that too I had to give a big bhashan in the show which made it even tougher for me. But today I guess I can speak better Hindi than anybody who has grown up speaking the language.  

What are your expectations from the show?
There are high expectations from the show especially because I am doing it on Star Plus which is considered as the best channel. We have not really done great promotion for the show apart from the ones on radio and mostly on the channel itself. I just hope the show does really well. So far I have got a good response even from my friends. I have a friend Shama who is very critical about my work, even she likes the show so much, that she even watches the repeats.

What would you like to tell your fans on India-Forums?
I would like to say that please watch the show, especially for me (laughs). I am excited to be a part of the Star Parivaar. I need blessings of all people and wishes from my fans.
