Exclusive chat with 'Poster Boys' actress.
Actress Samiksha Bhatnagar nurtured the dream of becoming an actress ever since she was in school. That’s where she decided to pursue her ambition and Bollywood dream in Mumbai. She landed her first break in a Star Plus TV serial called Veera, where she played a parallel lead. She got a positive response and affection from audience for Uttaran and Jaane kya hoga Rama Re.
She played a cameo in Madhur Bhandarkar’s film, Calendar Girls. At the same time she pursued theatre and performed in plays such as Rashomon Blues. She is now all set for her first-big movie Poster Boys opposite Bobby Deol. The movie released recently and Samiksha was seen playing Bobby Deol’s wife. Poster Boys is a laughter riot and a great entertainer. Samiksha’s performance in the movie won her a lot of appreciation.
Excerpts: Tell us something about your journey from television to Bollywood?
So far it has been an interesting journey, but I have had to work hard and see a lot of ups and downs. I always wanted to do films but TV gave me my initial fame and has been an important factor in helping me improve as an actor, specially adapt quickly and deliver my performances. No doubt theatre has also played a big role in enhancing my skills.
