Manjari Phadnis and Darsheel Safary in a still from 'Zokkomon'
After impressing everyone with a stellar cameo in Jaane Tu...Ya Jaane Na, Manjari Fadnis is eagerly awaiting her next big Bollywood project Zokkomon, where she shares screen space with Darsheel Safary.
And the actress admits that she thought Darsheel was a very naughty kid before she started shooting for the film. "I thought that he must be a real brat but I soon realised that he is a wonderful child. We had an amazing time on the sets and in between shots, we did a lot of masti. Both of us being Shiamak Davar students, we had a blast dancing away to heart's content by playing music in full volume! I play Darsheel's guardian angel in the film. I am talkathon personified in real life and had a lot of fun chatting with him," shares Manjari.
Why is she doing a Hindi film after so long? "I did get several Bollywood offers after Jaane Tu..., but none of those were roles that excited me much. I was very clear in my mind that after doing such a good project, it had to be something really nice or nothing at all. The fact that Aamir Khan himself recommended my name for Zokkomon to director Satyajit Bhatkal, his friend, makes me feel very proud. I want to be selective and do some great work, whether it's in Bollywood or Telegu films. I enjoy doing romantic comedies the most. I am a romantic at heart and believe that if guided properly, I can really excel in that genre," says Manjari.
