Aamna Shareef
'I'm terrified when I'm alone in a lift'
Wouldn't you have rather played a daayan (witch) than a naayika (heroine) in the TV show?
(Laughs) No, spirits spook me out! I'm terrified when I am alone in the lift. So I'm quite happy playing a naayika.
You're confident of standing out in a crowd of eight TV actresses?
(Smiles) Not just eight TV actresses, but eight senior, top-ranking TV actresses. I wanted to look my best and have worked really hard to stand out.
We've only seen you in romantic roles so far, you think you will be able to pull off a horror story?
I'm a die-hard romantic and love movies, akin to the Yash Chopra genre. That's why I'm happy I'm playing a naayika in Lucknow and not a daayan in this show.
So who is the daayan in your episode?
Huma Qureshi, she will make her TV debut in my episode.
What's different about your naayika?
(With a cheeky grin) I slay the daayan with my rifle.
