TellyChakkar got in touch with Sucheta who spoke about her favourite genre, dream role and much more.
You are known for playing a variety of roles, but most of your comic characters are still remembered by fans. Which genre is easy to perform, drama or comedy?
Personally, I love doing comedy as the atmosphere around the workplace is lovely. There is a lot of fun doing comedy. You get to improvise a lot. Comedy is my personal favourite but that doesn't negate any other genre that I want to or don't want to do. But I just love doing comedy.
You have worked in several films. How did you strike a balance between film and TV?
The movie is a different ball game altogether. In a movie, you shoot one scene in three days, and on TV, we shoot more scenes in a day. We have time constraints and deadlines to meet with. So, we need to work on those lines. Whereas in movies, it is a little easy as the release can be postponed. But one can't compare TV and films. Eventually, an actor is an actor irrespective of where he is performing.
I get a little impatient when I am shooting for a movie. If I am on a three-day off during an outdoor shoot, I feel like I don't have work. After a time, I actually got used to it. But when it comes to TV, we don't get that kind of privilege. The shootings happen cut-to-cut and you are back home. There is no time for getting off.
A dream role you are looking forward to playing on-screen?
There were a lot of dream roles that I wanted to play. Any role that comes to me, as of now, is a dream role for me. I need to give my best shot. But there are a lot of dream people whom I wish to work with. I want to work with a good bunch of production houses. There are a lot of moviemakers and TV personalities I want to work with.
