"It is my first film in which I will not be crying" - Rani Mukherjee
What
fairy
or
angel
stories
influenced
you
when
you
were
growing
up?
That's
a
good
question,
a
little
different
from
what
the
others
are
asking
me
(laughs).
I've
seen
Mary
Poppins
and
I
loved
it
because
we
used
to
sing
one
of
the
very
famous
songs
from
that
film
in
my
singing
class
which
I
can't
recall
now.
That's
one
film.
And
ofcourse,
Sound
of
Music,
though
she
wasn't
an
angel
in
the
film
but
that
was
one
movie
I
really
liked
watching
as
a
kid
and
even
now.
You
are
not
only
a
movie
star
but
a
character
actress
as
well.
I
mean,
how
hard
do
you
have
to
work
to
create
the
characters
you
have
portrayed
in
films
such
as
Black,
Bunty
Aur
Babli,
Hum
Tum
and
now
Thoda
Pyaar
Thoda
Magic?
It
takes
a
little
bit
of
your
focus
to
get
into
the
skin
of
any
character.
I
think
I
just
have
to
be
a
bit
more
observant
of
the
people
and
watch
them
in
different
walks
of
life
and
draw
inspiration
from
it.
In
Thoda
Pyaar
Thoda
Magic,
this
angel
is
a
lot
Indianized
and
unfortunately
I
could
not
get
inspired
for
my
role
because
I
haven't
seen
a
real
life
angel
but
I've
just
given
my
own
touch
to
it.
The
film
has
got
fantasy,
it's
got
reality,
kids,
Saif
Ali
Khan
and
yourself.
So
what's
new
in
the
film
that
tags
it
'unusual'?
What
is
unusual
is
that
I
am
playing
an
angel
and
I
don't
think
that
the
Indian
cinema,
in
the
last
50
years,
has
made
a
film
like
TPTM.
We
have
had
films
like
Mr
India,
Koi
Mil
Gaya
and
Krissh.
But
we
really
haven't
seen
any
women
doing
anything
with
super-natural
powers
before.
So
this
is
one
film
which
is
a
perfect
blend
between
fantasy
and
real
life,
and
that
is
TPTM's
USP.
What's
more
is
that
I
am
not
allowed
to
love
in
the
film.
That
makes
it
a
bit
unusual
too,
isn't
it?
We
don't
usually
see
angels
perform
stunts.
But
did
you
come
across
any
cliff-hanging
experience
in
TPTM?
There
aren't
any
such
stunts
as
you
mentioned
but
it's
just
me
cycling
down
the
rainbow
to
get
to
the
Earth
and
sitting
on
different
planets
trying
to
create
lunar
and
solar
eclipse,
so
she
basically
does
these
things
because
she
is
a
brat
angel
who
loves
to
play
pranks
like
throws
stars
on
other
angels
and
harasses
them
and
floats
on
the
swimming
pool
when
she
is
made
to
fall
down
in
the
pool,
etc.
These
are
some
of
the
many
things
she
does
in
the
film.
From
being
a
brat,
lets
move
on
to
some
emotions.
We've
seen
how
well
you
can
portray
emotions
in
films.
Then
what
challenged
you
as
an
actress
for
a
role
like
this
one
which
has
no
emotions?
I
think
that
was
something
that
really
made
me
do
this
film
in
the
first
place
because
it
was
my
first
film
in
which
I
will
not
be
seen
crying
and
for
me
that's
wonderful
because
I
have
played
so
many
characters
who
cry
in
each
and
every
film.
Infact,
Kunal
Kohli
has
saved
a
lot
of
glycerine
in
this
film
(laughs).
You're
12
years
old
in
the
Hindi
Film
Industry
and
now
that
you've
become
so
choosy,
do
you
find
that
you've
become
too
old
for
certain
roles
or
too
young
for
other
roles?
I
don't
think
anybody
can
be
too
old
or
too
young
for
any
role.
It
just
depends
on
what
kind
of
role
you
want
to
do
and
you
have
to
be
intelligent
enough
to
choose
roles
which
you
feel
that
the
audiences
would
like
to
see
you
in.
Bearing
in
mind
my
height,
I
can't
play
a
teenage
girl
of
16
in
any
film.
That
will
push
it
a
bit
too
far.
But
having
said
that,
in
movie
making,
there
is
nothing
impossible
that
the
actors
can
or
can't
do.
It
depends
on
how
fit
you
are
and
how
good
you
look.
Personally,
I'd
like
to
do
roles
that
I
enjoy
playing
and
I
feel
something
worthwhile
to
do
in
it
rather
than
decide
I'm
too
old
or
too
young
for
it.
A
film
like
TPTM
will
surely
end
something
like
-
'...and
happily
ever
after'.
Do
you
think
it's
just
a
myth
or
can
Bollywood
change
the
happy
endings
in
such
films?
Kids
are
so
optimistic
by
nature
and
they
are
so
positive
that
I
think,
any
film
with
kids
in
them
should
have
a
happy
ending
because
these
kids
are
the
future
of
our
country
who
will
bring
a
change
in
our
society,
for
good,
I
hope.
Plus,
there
is
so
much
violence
out
there
in
the
real
world
that
it's
wise
to
show
good
side
in
kids
and
end
the
film
on
a
happy
note.
Is
there
any
frustration
after
you've
done
the
film
and
seen
it
and
it
all
works
fine,
but
you
know
you
could
have
done
something
else
to
make
it
work
better?
I
think
that
happens
with
every
actor.
I
don't
think
that's
only
with
me.
All
the
good
actors
are
always
complaining
about
their
work
not
being
good
and
that
they
could've
done
better.
But
filmmaking
is
all
about
that
moment
where
you
take
the
shot
and
where
the
shot
is
canned
and
you
have
to
be
as
spontaneous
and
as
good
as
you
can
be
at
that
point
of
time.
Then
they
can
spend
their
entire
lifetime
thinking
that
'Oh,
I
could
have
been
better'.
The
fact
is,
when
a
shot
is
canned,
you
have
to
be
focused
and
have
all
your
energies
in
that
particular
shot
because
it's
gone
into
celluloid
forever.
What
was
it
like
joining
a
cast
and
crew
that
had
already
worked
together?
It
just
makes
it
simpler
and
much
easier.
This
is
Saif's
second
film
with
Kunal
but
my
third
film
with
both
of
them.
So
I
have
a
great
working
relationship
with
them
and
a
great
rapport.
When
you
are
working
with
like
minded
people,
it
just
becomes
easier
to
work.
Out
of
all
the
Kunal
Kohli
films
you've
done,
what
would
you
consider
your
most
memorable
one?
Hum
Tum
because
I
got
my
first
Best
Actress
Award
for
that
film
which
makes
it
all
the
more
special.
Any
aspects
of
your
character
you
identify
with
while
playing
the
angel,
besides
being
a
brat?
(Laughs)
Yes,
I
do
by
bringing
in
a
lot
of
happiness
in
peoples
life
and
always
smiling.
When
you
talk
about
any
angel,
you
create
in
your
mind
a
special
wardrobe
for
them
which
any
director
would.
But
has
the
designer
made
your
look
very
simple
or
is
it
something
extra
special
we'll
be
seeing
in
the
film?
When
she
is
in
heaven,
she
is
dressed
up
like
the
other
angels
but
when
she
comes
on
Earth,
she
has
a
different
wardrobe
and
that
is
one
look
that
she
has
in
the
entire
film.
We
could
have
experimented
with
many
things
but
as
we
did
not
specifically
know
and
have
not
seen
any
angel
in
real
life,
we
had
to
go
by
the
fairy
tale
books,
paintings
and
costumes
worn
by
other
actors
who
have
portrayed
the
role
of
angels
before.
The
costumes
aren't
that
special
but
the
acting
is.
How
does
it
feel
not
being
able
to
love
your
co-star
in
TPTM?
I
think
it's
very
interesting
because
I've
already
played
a
lot
of
romantic
roles
and
love
romancing
on
screen.
This
was
one
welcome
change
in
my
character.
And
as
you
know
I'm
very
hungry
and
excited
to
play
different
roles,
this
was
also
one
of
them
which
I
really
enjoyed
playing.
With
so
many
stars
turning
bloggers,
when
do
we
see
you
join
the
elite
club?
When
I
really
find
the
time
to
do
that.
Right
now,
I'm
too
busy
and
loaded
with
work.
