From everything I’ve learnt and small tips that the I’ve picked up on the way, I will share how small ways make a big change,” can says the 42-yearold actress. mriti Kalra has always said yes to a role only after she felt it was meant for her. Whether it was her debut show or

or she has always shown her talent and versatility. And Smriti’s latest show,

proves that the actress is being very choosy when it comes to work.

Speaking about her new show, Smriti says,“When I went for the audition, I knew only I can do this role. Every character in the show has grey shades and is very real and the story is very complex. My character Ahana is in her twenties and she is intelligent, determined and beautiful and mysterious. At the same time she is unapproachable and there is a certain mystery around her personality. Specially her eyes speaks a lot which has lot of pain. She knows what she wants in life. And she is in touch with her wrong emotions.”

Going glam for the show, Smriti sports a very Bohemian look which is a reflection of her emotional state. Says Smriti,“In earlier shows I used very less make up but this role demanded glamorous avatar. I am sporting a Bohemian look in the show. Ahana’s childhood was not great as she has seen a lot and had a disturbed life. A lot of boots with western clothes will be my attire. My hair has a different style, its wild and unkept. I have also cut my hair a bit. In nutshell, my look is glamorous and the audience has never seen me in this avatar before.”
