Usually, actors get selected for films or television serials after they have made a mark while doing plays. But for Tejashri Pradhan, it was the other way round. Tejashri, who has been a part of acclaimed Marathi films like 'Zenda' and TV shows too, opted to do theatre after doing films and TV for over four years! In Gujarat to shoot for the B-Town film
Kabhi Yun Bhi Toh Ho (
KYBTH) Tejashri says, ���������Theatre is a far more challenging medium than films or television.
There are no retakes and I wanted to be absolutely sure about my acting abilities before deciding to do plays. And doing theatre has made me a far more confident actor.���������
Asked about her role in
KYBTH, Tejashri shares, ���������The film deals with a lot of relevant social issues, including widow remarriage. I play the female lead in the film. I play a Gujarati bride in the film. As I have senior actors working in the film with me, I sometimes feel very nervous because the fear of messing things up is always there at the back of your mind. But
Manoj Joshi is a wonderful person and made me feel very comfortable.���������
Finally, asked about her future projects, she says, ���������I am doing an interesting Marathi movie called
Lagna Pahave Karun. Besides, I am shooting for a film called Prakash Amte -
The Real Hero, based on the life of award-winning social worker Prakash Amte, which also stars
Nana Patekar and Sonali Kulkarni. It will probably be a bi-lingual movie (Hindi and Marathi). So I am happy with the kind of work that I am doing right now.���������
