TB: Stop playing woman, son told Ali Asgar

Sunday, February 03, 2013 | 4:00:02 PM IST (+05:30 GMT) 1 Comments

Mumbai, Feb 3 (IANS) "Jeannie Aur Juju" came as a respite for Ali Asgar, who had enough of playing woman on the small screen. Not only that, donning the garb of a woman spelled trouble for his school going son too.

Mumbai, Feb 3 (IANS) "Jeannie Aur Juju" came as a respite for Ali Asgar, who had enough of playing woman on the small screen. Not only that, donning the garb of a woman spelled trouble for his school going son too.

Best remembered for playing Kamal in "Kahaani Ghar Ghar Kii", he was often seen playing a woman in "Comedy Circus".

"It became very monotonous for me to play a girl again and again. I did it in two or three places, and it was very scary to think that the audience may also find it monotonous," he told IANS.

"My son used to be teased in school over me dressing up like a girl and he asked me to stop playing such roles," he added.

The actor is currently seen in SAB TV's show "Jeannie Aur Juju" and said: "The show came as a breather for me. There is no vulgarity or double meaning dialogues in the show like it was in 'Comedy Circus'. 'Comedy Circus' was a competition, therefore, we were often forced to bring in those elements."

The fact that "Jeannie Aur Juju" is an Indian adaptation of popular international show "I Dream Of Jeannie" attracted Ali towards it.

"'I Dream of Jeannie' is something that both classes and masses have watched before. This gave the show connectivity and acceptance," he said.

"Also, the makers of the original show are very happy with our adaptation," he added.

Talking about TRP ratings, the actor said: "I would not want these ratings to affect me, but these are the numbers which show how successful the show is."

Ali moved to reality shows after finding fiction-based series creatively dissatisfying.

"I was not getting good characters to do in TV soaps. All the characters seemed like extensions of my role of Kamal from 'Kahaani Ghar Ghar Kii'. I was not getting creative satisfaction," he said.

Having said that, he admits being content with his career.

"I am happy with my career and I feel that god has been very kind to me. I have been working continuously on TV for 27-28 years. If I didn't get good fiction roles, I did reality shows. I was always creatively occupied and didn't have the time to sit and sulk," he said.

Talking about the advancement in the television industry, Ali said that unfortunately the progress is only in the technical department, not in the content side.

"We still have the same content but technically we have advanced a lot. I don't know why content is not changing... or whether it is because of the audiences' demand or the choice of products we are giving them," he said.

Juju to give romance lessons to Jeannie with a pinch of comedy

Ali Asgar and Gia Manek in conversation.

Ali wants to play kunwara baap
He has made the audience cry with his emotive portrayal of Kamal Agarwal as an ideal brother, then as a stand-up comedian he left his audience in splits and now Ali Asgar is back as 'Man in uniform' this time in his current show Jeannie Aur Juju where he will teach lessons of romance with a pinch of comedy.

Having been a part of one of the most prominent shows of the television industry, ask him about the reason behind its success, and Ali says, "Kahani Ghar Ghar Ki had changed the face of television and set a benchmark. It not only had brilliant actors, but the whole set up was too glossy and at par with that of movies. It was more realistic and not just a melodrama with unnecessary exaggeration. Today technologically we have become stronger, butgood content is lacking. The maximum TRP of soaps these days goes upto 5-6 whereas our TRP was 9 when the show ended. "

After having proved his mettle as an actor, he also took up stand-up comedy. "After Kahani... I got many offers but they were all similar to Kamal and I didn't want to repeat myself. Besides, doing reality shows always leaves you with more time to spend with the family," says Ali who yearns to do something like Anand (Rajesh Khanna) andKunwara Baap in future.

Gia has twinkle toes
After winning millions of hearts with her stirring performance as Gopi Bahu in the soap operaSaath Nibhana Saathiya, the chirpy Giaa Manek is all set to surprise her audience with a punch of comedy assorted with romance through her character of Jeannie in an ongoing show Jeannie Aur Juju.

"When I was only six, I told my parents that I am going to become an actor when I grow up. I used to sit and watch all the soaps with a pen in my hand to jot down the names of production houses. Today, it is overwhelming to receive such acceptance by the audience. It's all because of my parents' blessings, luck and certainly my hard work," says Gia, who also loves to dance, on the fame she has got in a short span of three years.

Ask her about the gamble that she has played by choosing romcom soap over the hit saas-bahu sagas and she says, "I believe life is meant to take risks. Moreover, I have been stereotyped as a bahu, so I wanted to get out of that skin and exhibit my versatility as an actor. Though I am still open to saas-bahu stuff if something exceptionally brilliant comes my way."
