Actress
Parveena
who
essayed
the
role
of
Kesariya
in
Aamir
Khan's
2001
Oscar
nominated
film
Lagaan
is
going
through
a
financial
crunch
after
suffering
from
brain
stroke
last
year.
Recently
in
an
interaction
with
a
leading
daily,
the
actress
made
an
appeal
to
the
superstar
to
help
her
in
getting
work.
Parveena
told
ETimes
that
she
is
keen
to
return
to
work
and
wants
to
be
a
casting
director.
She
was
quoted
as
saying,
"My
family
has
always
helped
and
there
are
few
friends
who
look
out
for
me,
as
well.
All
I
want
now
is
some
financial
help
till
the
time
my
health
is
not
good.
I
want
work
as
a
casting
director
and
would
request
production
houses
to
give
me
work."
She
further
shared
that
Aamir
doesn't
know
about
her
illness
and
added,
"I
need
to
work
and
plead
to
him
to
give
me
work.
Aamir
bhai
doesn't
know
about
my
illness.
If
he
had
known,
he
would
have
definitely
helped
me.
As
we
all
know
that
he
has
helped
his
co-stars
from
Lagaan
including
Sri
Vallabh
Vyas.
All
I
want
to
tell
him
is,
mujhe
apne
office
mein
kaam
de
do
(give
me
some
work
in
your
office
please)."
For
the
unversed
when
Vyas
passed
away
due
to
a
brain
stoke
followed
by
a
paralytic
attack
while
shooting
for
a
movie
in
2008,
Aamir
has
extended
help
to
his
family.
Speaking
about
her
health,
Parveen
told
the
tabloid,
"I
have
had
arthritis
from
2012
and
the
condition
of
my
hands
has
become
such
that
I
cannot
work
as
an
actor,
anymore.
After
my
health
improved
a
while
ago,
I
had
started
working
as
a
casting
director.
I
want
to
continue
with
that
work
and
it
is
imperative
that
I
am
employed
to
be
able
to
take
care
of
myself."
During
the
course
of
the
interview
she
also
revealed
that
she
has
received
help
from
the
CINTAA

TV
Artistes'
Association),
Akshay
Kumar
and
Sonu
Sood.

Chaddha

The
