The newest sensation on TV, Erica Fernandez has been winning hearts of fans all across the globe. A rare combination of beauty and brains, the girl is seen playing Dr Sonakshi in Sony Entertainment Television's Kuch Rang Pyaar Ke Aise Bhi.

What does Erica mean?
My name Erica means a leader, a sole ruler.
You have done South films, what prompted you to take up TV?
I have always wanted to do TV at some point in my career and this happened suddenly. Movies too was quite a surprising turn for me though.
Did you put too much effort to get into the skin of Sonakshi?
Not much really, the whole shaping of the character happened on set day by day. Took me some time to sink into the character.
What do you love most about your character?
Sonakshi is a very mature character, strong headed woman who knows the value of everything in her life that is her family, friends or work. She has fallen in love for the very first time in her life and this phase is bringing out a new shade of Sonakshi.
You have worked in South films and now you are doing a TV show, any difference you find?
Doing films and TV are poles apart. They are two different things cannot be compared but I enjoy doing both as I love what I do. The pace is 10 times faster than that of films.
How is it shooting with your co star Shaheer Sheikh?
I am glad I have a really good costar. Its really important to have cooperative co actors when your working and specially when you are doing a daily soap. He is a lovely costar, very supportive and encouraging. He pushes me to do better.
How is it working with the senior actress Supriya Pilgaonkar?
Same goes with Supriyaji. She is a mother figure to us and the bond we have off screen is also very similar to what is onscreen as of now. She is just adorable.
If you were offered any reality show...
Reality show !!! Let's see when I get offered one. I am a little moody that way. What ever interests me at that point of time I might take up.
How is your relationship with your producers?
My producers are lovely people! They are so focused and know exactly what they want. I am glad I am a part of this show and my TV career began with them and their production house.
What are the tips of becoming an actor?
Tips? I am not a Oscar winner to give tips on acting.
What kind of a roles you would like to do in future?
I would want to do an action show/movie. I really want to train myself for the same.
What makes you happy?
The simplest of things make me happy. I love small gestures and nature.
