"Stop calling me Aunty!" - Sneha Wagh

Today on her birthday, TellyBuzz got in touch with the petite actress Sneha Wagh, who is having a hard-hitting time making her fans understand that she is too young to be called an Aunty!

Aunty and Uncle have become easy fall-backs when addressing people including distant associates, neighbors, acquaintances, and even total strangers who are older than oneself. The title Aunty is so overused that every adult actress in our Telly town is a potential aunty for many.

One such actress who is victimized by the Aunty Syndrome is the very beautiful Sneha Wagh who has won accolades for her on-screen character Ratan in her on-going daily soap Veera on Star Plus.

As Sneha turns a year wiser and celebrates her 26th birthday today, we asked her what are the side effects of gaining success at such a young age. 

In a frank conversation with TellyBuzz, Sneha Wagh says, "Recognition has its pros and cons. I don't accept friend requests from unknown people on social networking sites. Therefore, they keep on sending me messages, saying, Aunty please accept kar lo. Hum aapke bahot bade fans hai."

We wonder that it might be the kids who cause the slip-up blunder. Regarding the same the actress says, "It's not just kids who call me aunty, I'm talking about 60% of the people who wish to get in touch with me. Now I can't keep telling everyone that I'm just 25 years old."

Being in her twenties and been called an 'aunty' too many times, by too many adults who she barely know, is obviously a moment of displeasure. Sneha says, "It's just that people consider me as Ratan Parjai in real life too, who is a mother of two kids. But in reality, I'm the most annoying and mischievous kid."

On being asked, if Sneha wishes to pass over a message to her fans and well-wishers, the actress did not miss the opportunity to clarify, "Yes, I would like to tell everybody that I'm not really too old, so please stop calling me Aunty!"

We at TellyBuzz wish Sneha a very Happy Birthday and a wonderful year ahead!

Well I Won't blame them... I Mean I do like her acting (not a fan or anything) BUT I think she is lieing, come on man, she even got married,divorced etc and yet she is only 26? I Don't buy that horsecrap. Lookswise also she does not look a day less than 31, I swear. I Mean Akshara/Hina Khan looks much younger than her and she is gonna be 27 on oct. And Khushi/Sanaya can pass of as her much younger sister and Khushi is 30 years old! PLEASE Sneha ji we know you have shed off 5 or 6 yrs from ur age , no need to be vocal about it.
