Were you sceptical about taking up a negative character?
My first serial was Haiwaan where I played an out-and-out negative character. But my character was loved so much by the audience. I received only love from the fans. Even I was apprehensive about taking up a negative character. But here my role is not similar to that I played in Haiwaan. I understand there will be more hate this time. I do get hate on social media for coming between the two lovers.
I have only played positive characters in my films both in Hindi and South. But I feel TV views me in a different way.
How is your bond with Simba Nagpal?
Simba is a very sweet guy. He is an extremely down-to-earth person. Simba is nice to everyone on set. I am very lucky to get a chance to work with him. He is one of the sweetest guys I have worked with. I always had a perception that all the actors who have done Bigg Boss are the same in real life, they are always fighting and are full of attitude. But when I met Simba, he was nothing like that.
If given a chance, would you like to do Bigg Boss?
No, not at all! I don't think Bigg Boss is my cup of tea. I am just good at acting. I am not good with reality shows. I have been offered Bigg Boss Malayalam. But I always turned down the offer. Acting is my passion. I won't say never say never, but as of now, I would any day prefer an acting project over a reality show.
Gayathri has previously done films in the South film industry. She was also seen in Ajay Devgn starrer Raid.
