00:00First of all, welcome to INS.
00:03And first of all, you should know that
00:05the first time comedy was in House full 5.
00:07You were watching the comic timing
00:09and we were taking a review in the public.
00:11So, the public told you that
00:13you were surprised.
00:15Are you really telling me?
00:16Yes, I am.
00:17You really received a reaction?
00:19Yes, I did a public review.
00:20Okay.
00:21So, did you see yourself
00:23a comedy as a surprise?
00:25Yes.
00:26I still remember
00:28when I was in Sajid's office
00:31when I was talking about the film
00:34on the way back home
00:35in the car, I was thinking
00:36that I didn't have anything wrong.
00:39One thing is that
00:41the audience doesn't like you.
00:43But I was scared
00:45that if I was doing a film
00:48and of course,
00:51I didn't like anyone.
00:52I didn't even try it.
00:54I didn't even try it.
00:55But sometimes
00:56they don't accept it in the genre.
00:59You can do anything.
01:01So, I felt
01:02that it didn't happen.
01:03You lose your fans
01:05and you lose that love.
01:06With Akshay Kumar
01:08You have a second film.
01:09Yes.
01:10So,
01:11how does the equation
01:13always work?
01:14Because you are
01:15a lot of pranksters.
01:16Yes,
01:17I think they are
01:18a lot of pranksters.
01:19I think
01:20they are probably
01:21pranking
01:22because
01:23he gets bored
01:24sometimes.
01:25He works so much.
01:26But
01:28his lovely energy
01:29is the same.
01:30I think
01:31when I worked with him
01:32last time
01:33it was very formal
01:36because
01:38I met him
01:39and I didn't
01:40but I think
01:41now we are
01:42like friends.
01:43I think
01:44I can say
01:45even on set
01:47he was very
01:48advised.
01:49I was taking
01:50advice from him.
01:51How do I do?
01:52It didn't happen
01:53much.
01:54I need to do
01:55less.

05:22raw and intense
05:23but
05:24big screen comedy
05:25so
05:26Chitanda
05:27yeah
05:28what's the difference
05:29in the houseful mood
05:30what's the difference
05:31what's the difference
05:32what's the difference
05:33both
05:34I think comedy is also very difficult
05:35and
05:36very different
05:38and
05:39to play to a bigger audience
05:40it's not easy to say
05:41it's easy to say
05:42that we are serious and commercial work
05:44but
05:45honestly
05:46commercial work is very difficult
05:47it's not easy to play
05:48it's not easy to play
05:49I don't know if I have any questions.
05:51What is the reason to take the time after the time,
05:56you saw some films in your career and then you took a break.
06:02Then you took a break and then you took a break.
06:05What is the reason to take a break?
06:09If you took a break, you had to say that you took a break?
06:12Definitely you took a break.
06:14I took a break because in my personal life, there were ups and downs in that time.
06:19That's why I took a break and I became a mother also.
06:24So, I took a break because of course, the work is hard.
06:30Because there were thousands of people came and I had many offers.
06:33So, yeah, I think I did suffer.
06:36But, I don't think that I will change it even today.
06:41What I have done in that time, I will correct it.
06:45You always choose to think and think and choose.
06:48So, have you ever said that Chitanda, let's do a lot of work?
06:52Many people have said, honestly.
06:54I think it's good to hear that they want to see more of me.
06:58It's very encouraging, honestly.
07:00So, I will do a lot of work.
07:06Yes.
07:08Surma, what is the biggest difference between an actor and producer?
07:14Do you want to produce biopics in future?
07:16I think true stories, true incidents and true stories are inspired.
07:24And I think as cinema people, as filmmakers,
07:28it's very important to hear stories,
07:31for entertainment or inspiration or whatever you say.
07:35So, that's why I get excited with biopics.
07:38I think it's very important to hear stories.
07:40I think an actor is saying,
07:41in the industry,
07:42I have always said,
07:43eight-hour shifts are saying,
07:45eight-hour shifts are better than not.
07:49Especially, when women are after pregnancy,
07:53they need to be eight-hour shifts.
07:54So, what would you say?
07:55What would you say?
07:57See, a very personal relationship is,
08:00what is the understanding of your director?
08:02What are the requirements of the director?
08:04What are the requirements of the producer?
08:06If they can manage it,
08:08then I'm sure they will manage.
08:10But sometimes there are restraints.
08:12Time is restrained.
08:13Money is restrained.
08:15Scheduling is not possible.
08:18You know,
08:19So, humko wo aspect bhi,
08:20I think we have to respect.
08:22Because,
08:23after all,
08:24time is money in this industry.
08:26You know,
08:27everybody is investing in a project.
08:29So,
08:30I don't want to comment.
08:31Mujhe sa lagta hai ki sabki apni choice hai.
08:33And,
08:34I think,
08:35Tipika is a very big,
08:37you know, actress.
08:38And,
08:39it is her right to make a choice.
08:40You know,
08:41it's her privilege to make a choice.
08:43Yeah.
08:44You know,
08:45you know,
08:46in the industry,
08:47when there are two decisions,
08:49then,
08:49it will be broken.
08:51Or,
08:52it will not be open.
08:53It will be open.
08:54It will be open.
08:55It will be open.
08:56So,
08:57it will be paid disparity.
08:58So,
08:59people don't give a lot of attention.
09:00Or,
09:01it will be a highlight.
09:02Then,
09:03it will be down.
09:04So,
09:05what do you think?
09:06Let's go.
09:07Let's go.
09:08Let's go.
09:09Let's go.
09:10Let's go.
09:11Let's go.
09:12Let's go.
09:13I think型 day- fiscal,
09:14and very low right there.
09:14changes come a lot.
09:15At least,
09:16I think,
09:17like actresses like she's like Rani,
09:21and you know,
09:22Vidya,
09:22and I think even Krithi
09:24for that matter.
09:25Tabu.
09:25There is a lot
09:40When you signed a commercial film in Housefull 5, when OTT was very appreciated, was this decision for stardom?
09:53It is a work. It can be found anywhere, anywhere in any genre or platform.
09:59I think it is a good work or interesting work.
10:04I don't look at work like this is big or small. I have also made a small film, short film on Amazon.
10:12My next film is Netflix.
10:14This is in Beach.
10:15We will probably start a film with another one.
10:18It will be a commercial film.
10:20I think it is a work.
10:22You can as an actor do any platform, any genre.
10:27There is no blessing that you can do so much.
10:33Do you think that in industry, do you have limited roles after 40 years?
10:39Some things are of course limited, because they are not written.
10:43But there is also a work that is written for mature women.
10:48There are many actresses, even Kareena for that matter is also doing some most interesting work.
10:54So, I don't think there is something that it is reduced, but it is written differently.
11:00So, obviously a 20-year-old can't cast as a 40-year-old.
11:04And a 40-year-old can't cast as a 20-year-old.
11:08So, what do you think about future projects and what messages you want to do?
11:12I will talk about it very quickly.
11:14And I want to tell the fans that I want to go and watch Housefull.
11:18And watch A, watch B, watch B, watch B, watch B, watch B.
11:23Go have a good time and a good laugh.
11:25.
