Interview / If not an actor, Sheen Das of the show ‘Dadi Amma Dadi Amma Maan Jao’ would have been a journalist

Television actress Sheen Das will soon be seen in the serial ‘Dadi Amma Dadi Amma Maan Jao’. Sheen has also previously worked as a lead actress in Rajshri Production. Sheen considers herself very lucky as this is the first time when Rajshri Production has repeated its lead actress in a show. Recently, during a conversation with Dainik Bhaskar, Sheen shared some things related to her personal and professional life with us.

Had a good time in a short time

Usually, these production houses do not repeat the actresses, but when I received a call for the show again, obviously I couldn’t believe it for a while. My previous show ‘Piyaa Albela’ may have run for a short time but it seems that I had made a very good repo in that short time and hence got a chance again, am very happy and I will try my best to meet the expectations of the makers .

Veteran actors have to live up to their expectations

Auditioned for the show, had to do a lot of workshops. The team wanted me to look completely different from my old character. For which we used to attend workshop four times a week. During that workshops, he worked very hard on his dialogues and body language. There are some Veteran actors in this show, I have to live up to their expectations too. Believe it hard.

I also want to bridge the difference between big and small city

Talking about the show, I personally relate to it a lot. The small town girl, who is not a parent, has many responsibilities but she also has dreams of her own, which she wants to fulfill. I personally feel that many small town girls do not get a chance to compete because whenever you go to a big city, the first question you are asked is where you are from and you are judged accordingly. No matter how big a degree you have achieved, somewhere or other from which city you belong, it definitely matters to some people. Happened to me too and to be honest, like my character, I also want to remove the difference between big and small city.

If not an actor, the journalist would have been

I always wanted to become an actor, but I could not understand where to start to fulfill this dream. I did a course in Journalism and then did an internship with a news channel in Delhi. Where the channel had its office, it used to shoot a show called ‘Airlines’. There I auditioned and there was a time that the show’s actor was not able to read his lines properly. The production house gave me a chance and called me those lines. I rightly told him and just what again, this is what started my journey to become an actor. I got a real recognition with Piya Albela. If there was not an actor, a journalist would have been there.
