Sony TV’s show Bade Achhe Lagte Hain 2 has become everyone’s favourite in no time.
The show has garnered a huge fan following in no time.
With Disha Parmar and Nakuul Mehta’s hit jodi once again back on-screen, Bade Achhe Lagte Hain 2 has become a must-watch for the viewers.
Actress Sneha Namanandi is one of them among the whole star cast who plays a pivotal role in the show.
Sneha is seen playing the role of Shivina Kapoor in the show who is Ram’s step-sister.
However, she plays an important role in Ram’s life and is the most-pampered member of the Kapoor family.
We got in touch with Sneha who opened up about her character in the show and much more.
How did you bag the show?
The show’s offer came to me as a huge unexpected surprise. I was cast for Shivina’s role in just two days. I had met the casting director all of a sudden at a coffee shop. I met him after a long time after I did Ragini MMS 2. He told me if I am interested in doing a TV show. He asked me this as I had never done a TV show before. I was always open to doing a TV show but wanted to explore something nice rather than a saas-bahu drama. I got a call from the show’s team and I sent an audition. The very next day I got a call and I was told that my shooting starts after two days. This is the quickest casting that has happened in my career.
The first thing I asked the makers was if it was a positive role or a negative one. Since it was my first show, I wasn’t keen on doing a negative role. However, when they briefed me about my character, I was quite happy with it. I don’t mind playing a negative character but I really wanted to play a positive one on TV.
Tell us about your bond with Nakuul Mehta on and off-screen
Nakuul is a very good actor and a very nice person too. When a co-star is a nice person, you tend to gel with that person automatically and the vibe is created. There was one scene that had gone viral and people loved it so much. That was one scene where Nakuul and I were talking and I was crying. I didn’t even have to use glycerine as we were so much into the scene as brother and sister that we ended up performing it naturally. We actually treat each other like brother and sister in real life.
Owning a pet cafe…
I had a thought about opening the cafe during the second lockdown. I love animals and I love coffee. This made me think about combining both things and doing something with them. I collaborated with both the thing and I opened a pet cafe. I did this completely on my own and had no partnership. My family supported me a lot with this. The major USP of my cafe is that there are dishes for both the customers as well as the pets which is very rare to see. There is a dog and cat menu as well. I am going to start my pet treats also. My heart flows for animals. I am extremely fond of them and would like to do anything for them.
Well, Sneha, it’s a great initiative for our furry friends.
Sneha has done a couple of movies in the South and also some web shows.
Stay tuned for all the latest updates.
