Having been in the entertainment industry for three decades, Kitu Gidwani is sure of what doesn’t appeal to her as an actor. “Saas-bahu dramas are just not for me,” she declares, at the onset of our conversation. Her actions too match her words. After making her OTT debut with Fittrat (2019), followed by Gosht Stories (2020), she is now seen in Potluck — a charming family comedy.
“It is difficult to find good and subtle comedy these days. The writing of Potluck made it fun,” says the actor, who plays the matriarch in the SonyLIV offering. While her co-stars found their characters right in their wheelhouse, for Gidwani it was not the case. “I am usually quite childish and silly on set. I had to rein myself in and be consciously reserved. The freedom to own the character and do small improvisations was only possible because of the competent cast.”
