Most women are not bad, it is situations that make one act in a particular manner: Preet Mullani
Preet Mullani is very excited with the kind of response her character is getting in Zee TV’s hit show Sapne Suhane Ladakpan Ke (Shakuntalam Telefilms).
“Sangeeta is very realistic. One of the best things about this Shakuntalam Telefilms show is that it has given me recognition. Earlier, I have done shows but thanks to this number one show, people now know me as Sangeeta. I have been around for five years playing varied characters in shows such as Shaurya Suhani and Shakuntala among others, but this is something which I have never tried before. Every average housewife easily relates to my character. Most women are not bad, it is situations that make one act in a particular manner. However, they are always labeled as someone who does lot of *****ing.”
Preet who was earlier known as Shabana accepts that she is yet to arrive in terms of audience perception “but as an artiste, I am satisfied.”
“Sapne Suhane is a good start towards that goal and I am sure that something bigger and better is waiting for me out there. All said and done, I have no regrets for I feel that I have already created my own space in my own limited manner.”
Among all the shows Preet had done till date like Bidaai, Jiya Jale and Main Kab Saas Banoongi, she regards her stint with YRF’s Kismat as one of her best till date. “There I had a parallel track along with Rahul Bagga who was essaying Nawab Kabir Mubarak Khan. Working with India’s premiere production house is itself a major achievement. They shoot like a film,” she observes.
Preet is really happy with the atmosphere on the sets of Sapne Suhane.“There is great bonding not only among all the co- stars but also with the unit hands. Sangeeta is never seen alone; she is always seen with Seema Pandey who plays Savitri. People often ask ‘are you as close in real life as well for you look like sisters’. I share the most closest equation with her,” she avers.
“People really like the kind of costumes my character adorns. They often say you are Dellu mother who wears those pretty saris and jewelry, right,” she ends.
