"I'd love doing 'Baa Bahu for ever" - Sarita Joshi
Q.
How
does
it
feel
when
you
see
'Baa
Bahu
Aur
Baby'
getting
awards
for
three
consecutive
years?
A.
As
an
actor,
it
feels
good
because
after
all
this
show
is
reaching
the
people
and
they
are
appreciating
our
efforts.
I
was
happier
getting
the
IDEA
ITA
awards
because
this
time
I
got
the
award
for
'Best
Actress'.
Earlier,
I
used
to
get
the
'Best
Baa'
in
Star
Plus,
but
this
is
more
important
because
a
panel
of
jurists
have
decided
on
the
winner.
It
is
also
special
because
I
have
got
many
awards
in
theatre.
I
have
got
the
'Sangeet
Natya
Award'
in
1988
from
the
President.
I
was
small
at
that
time
and
was
happy,
but
this
award
makes
me
feel
that
my
work
in
television
is
also
being
acknowledged.
Q.
Should
the
happiness
of
getting
the
'Best
Actress
Drama'
award
for
a
comedy
show
be
more?
A.
It
is
nothing
like
that.
We
should
not
differentiate
acting
in
terms
of
comedy
and
tragedy
or
negative
characters.
There
are
just
good
roles.
According
to
me,
there
should
be
just
two
awards
for
actors
'Best
Actor'
and
'Best
Actor
in
a
Supporting
Role'.
Q.
Which
is
your
favorite
character
in
the
show?
A.
It
is
difficult
to
distinguish
my
favorite
character,
as
I
think
the
show
is
written
so
well
that
every
character
gets
equal
footage
and
importance.
Whenever
any
character's
track
comes
in
focus,
he
becomes
the
lead
actor.
Among
all,
I
think
Paresh
Gantara's
character
has
a
lot
of
shades
and
he
gets
to
display
different
moods
-
sometimes
he
is
a
cheat
and
at
other
times
he
thinks
for
the
family
etc.
I
think
most
of
other
characters
move
on
the
same
line
like
the
character
of
Gattu,
the
big
brother,
and
the
father's
character.
Yes,
Baa's
character
has
shades
because
her
past
is
also
shown
in
the
show.
Q.
You
have
been
doing
this
role
for
the
past
two
years.
Will
you
be
happy
doing
this
role
for
two
more
years?
A.
I
have
been
doing
this
role
for
three
years
now.
Yes,
I
will
love
doing
this
show
for
whatever
period
it
runs
because
it
is
a
good
show.
I
was
doing
a
Gujarati
show
'Santo
Rangeli'
which
ran
for
nine
years
and
the
people
used
to
recognize
me
by
that
name.
I
have
no
problem
if
the
show
runs
for
five
or
ten
more
years.
I
will
be
happy
doing
it.
In
fact,
I
will
love
doing
it
for
ever.
Q.
What
you
think
about
J
D
Majethia
and
Aatish
Kapadia
as
the
producers
of
the
show?
A.
Our
relation
is
from
the
theatre
days.
When
they
had
started
their
career
in
theatre
I
did
two-three
shows
and
we
are
friends
from
that
time
and
not
through
'Baa
Bahu
aur
Baby'.
If
they
offer
me
a
role
and
say
it
is
a
good
character
then
I
will
blindly
accept
that
role
without
even
asking
for
the
details.
They
are
such
good
and
creative
people
that
I
would
always
love
to
work
with
them.
Q.
Is
this
show
popular
because
it
is
different
from
the
regular
'saas-Bahu'
shows?
A.
It
is
because
the
show
is
very
natural
and
simple
in
its
approach.
The
story
of
the
show
is
very
close
to
people's
life
and
they
relate
to
it.
The
values
are
very
good
in
the
show
and
it
does
not
look
like
a
work
of
fiction.
Moreover,
it
is
interesting
and
every
parent
will
want
that
their
children
watch
this
show.
Even
after
two
years
of
the
show
the
excitement
of
watching
it
has
not
died
and
people
still
don't
want
to
miss
any
episode
of
'Baa
Bahu
aur
Baby'.
Q.
You
are
known
as
a
popular
theatre
artist.
Which
of
your
roles
is
your
favorite
and
will
your
live
audience
be
able
to
see
you
soon?
A.
I
have
done
many
roles
that
are
my
favorites.
I
can't
name
them.
But
recently,
I
did
'Sakubai'
in
Hindi
which
was
directed
by
Nadira
Zaheer
Babbar
of
Ekjute
Theatre
group
and
a
Gujarati
play
'Masala
Mami'.
I
love
doing
theatre,
but
I
like
to
concentrate
on
one
work
at
a
time.
I
am
not
one
of
those
who
keep
juggling
different
things
at
the
same
time.
A
theatre
performance
requires
one
to
one-and-a-half
months'
preparation.
However,
if
I
get
a
good
script
and
feel
that
I
should
do
that
role,
then
I
will
definitely
do
it.
Then
I
will
try
and
take
out
time
for
that
theatre
show.
Q.
Your
role
in
'Guru'
was
appreciated
very
much.
Are
you
working
in
any
film
now?
A.
The
role
in
'Guru'
was
strong
in
spite
of
its
small
length
and
when
filmmakers
like
Mani
Ratnam
offer
you
a
role
you
accept
it
without
even
thinking.
As
for
films,
I
will
do
if
something
interesting
comes
my
way.
As
of
now,
talks
are
going
on,
but
nothing
has
been
finalized.
Q.
Which
other
projects
are
we
going
to
see
you
in?
A.
For
television
I
am
happy
doing
'Baa
Bahu
aur
Baby'.
I
had
received
a
few
offers,
but
I
did
not
like
the
characters.
If
anything
interesting
comes
my
way
I
will
definitely
do
that.
Q.
What
changes
have
you
noticed
in
your
career
in
television?
A.
The
changes
that
I
have
seen
is
that
now
we
can't
survive
without
television.
It
has
now
moved
from
our
drawing
rooms
to
the
bedrooms.
Previously
there
was
only
Doordarshan
and
the
quality
of
programs
were
of
very
high
quality,
but
now
with
the
growing
number
of
channels,
the
quality
of
programming
has
degraded.
Most
of
the
shows
look
the
same.
I
hope
the
quality
improves;
otherwise
the
audiences
are
going
to
get
bored.
