Shweta Rohira gets candid

Actor Shweta Rohira talks about her dreams, what she does to unwind and her idea of romance.

How would someone get your special attention?

It’s not very difficult. Just be nice with me. That is what really impresses me.

Which celebrities you believe are the most influential?

I think not only celebrities, but every individual is influential in someway or the other. 

On what do you spend the most: clothes, accessories, perfumes, underwear, or anything else?

I think I really splurge on clothes and accessories, as watches and shoes are my weakness. And new clothes, of course, no girl can resist. 

Whom do you love more, your parents, friends, spouse, kids, siblings, your yourself? Why?

I love my friends and family but my nephews get a little more from me. They are my kids for the weekend, as that is when I get to meet them.  

What do you do when not working?

I love chilling with my family and my friends, reading books or watching movies. 

Do you believe in love at first sight?

Totally, I am a stickler for romance and love at first side is a big part of it.  

What is your dream project?

I’m a dreamer; I dream a lot and have a lot of dream projects that I want to achieve. 

Tell me something about your last job, other than money, that would have inspired you to keep working there.

I worked in a kindergarten and being around kids really made me happy. It inspired to be with kids and today I conduct workshops with kids. 

Describe yourself in one word.

Sunny Ghanshani

Actor Sunny Ghanshani who hails from Bilaspur, Chattisgarh is indeed a lucky man. After struggling for years, Sunny got his debut role in Siddharth Kumar Tewary's new show Porus. The actors about his journey and the hardships he faced to become an actor. "In the year 2007 I came to Mumbai and had a very bad experience. I was studying in Pune and got my first job in Mumbai from campus interview. I got pick- pocketed and was not getting enough warmth and love from Mumbai. So wanted to go back. But destiny brought me back to Mumbai in 2009 and this time I started working also. I continued the day job and I used to go for auditions for serials and commercials  during weekends," says the actor. 

Sunny shares that he didn't get things on a platter once the round of auditions began.  "The audition phase was long but my day job was giving me the financial

security. I have never asked money from my family. Back at home my father never wanted me to leave the job but my mother always supported my decision. There was a time when I realised that I should take a break from my job but at the same time I knew I should have enough money to survive in the city like Mumbai," he says. 

However, the actor's dedication and hard work eventually paid off.  "End of 2016 I left the job and started going to production houses and that's how I got in touch with Swastik Productions. I used to make my own script for auditions. When I got the role of Philip, father of Alexander I was skeptical. I thought that 'my first role and that too grey shade', but I have immense faith on Siddharth sir and I am just following his visions."

Said Gracy Singh, “My mother introduced me to Brahmakumaris. It has changed my outlook towards life. Just as your mobile battery needs a recharge, we need to be charged to face life as it comes. The spiritual talk by BK Sister Shivani does just that.” 

Added Neelima Azeem, “I am a spiritual person. Dance is my connect to God. My friends wanted me to come for the talk and so I felt that this would be a wonderful opportunity and it indeed is.” 

Director Prem Soni and actor Natasha Singh admit that Brahmakumari has changed their lives. Says Natasha Singh, “An aunt referred me to Brahmakumaris at a difficult phase of my life. It made a difference to me and hence I always pass it forward to those to need it most. There is abundance of love here.” 

Avers Prem Soni,  “Natasha introduced me to Brahmkumaris. I was going through a very difficult phase and today I know the answers to the questions that have always been on my mind. The love you receive here is overwhelming.” 

Feels Bhagyashree, “BK Sister Shivani is simple and explains with so much love that it touches you, I feel overwhelmed.” The same emotion is echoed by Pinky Roshan, Sharad Kapoor and the ilk. 

When you ask BK Sister Shivani for a few final words of wisdom, she says, “If you think your life is not in the right direction, it is time to take a U turn towards spirituality. Spirituality means connecting to my original quality and to be able to use peace, love and compassion in every Karma. And as a person I am looking for peace, love and respect. If I connect to myself, then I will find peace and contribute towards creating a peaceful world.” 

The world sure needs that today!
