Kadambari Desai, Teen Bahuranya
You may have seen her earlier in Balaji's Kabhi Sauthen Kabhi Saheli or Keh Tha Hai Dil.
Kadambari, a philosophy graduate from a suburban Mumbai college, got many acting offers but turned them down because she wanted lead roles.
This ambitious actress was bitten by the acting bug at the tender age of three, where she played a baby sparrow in a play! Later, she performed in experimental plays, and also acted in a Marathi play written by noted playwright, Vijay Tendulkar.
"I went for an audition for Teen Bahuranya and was selected. I am simple like my character Janaki in that serial," she says.
Working 14-15 hours, she gets only one holiday every 10 days.
"My father-in-law is one of my biggest fans and he is very happy that I play Janaki," says Kadambari, who is married to Sameer Desai, an ad professional. "He wants to know what will happen in next episode before it is aired so that he can show off to his friends. We have got good response for this serial even thought it is just one month old.
"I have done Kundan Shah's unreleased film, Teen Behene, based on the real story of three sisters who committed suicide in Kanpur."
She is also doing a Marathi serial called Awagachi Samsara on Zee TV (Marathi) and anchors Tax Free on ETV Marathi.
