On most occasions, you’ll find actors complete with their starry attitude and surrounded by their entourage. When they travel on an outdoor shoot, they are pampered and treated a cut above the rest. However, Neha Joshi had no qualms wining, dining and sharing her shopping spree experiences with her co-travellers: the journalist mandli, who were in Lucknow for the launch of her upcoming show, Atal. Joshi’s carefree persona took us by surprise. While everyone tries so hard to stand out, the actor prefers to blend in.
It’s a mantra she practices at work as well. “My face is so Indian that almost every week, I meet at least one person who tells me that I resemble someone they know. That’s why it becomes easy for people to relate to me. I look like the girl-next-door, making people feel that I am one of them. Everyone is unique, but if my uniqueness makes people relate to me, then half my job as an actor is done. But it also poses a problem—sometimes, casting directors say I am too simple for the role, and at other times, I am rejected because they say that I am too glamorous for the role,” she laughs.
