Jasmin Bhasin: Difficult to portray serious character when you have a pleasant person’s image

Mumbai, Aug 18 (IANS) Actress Jasmin Bhasin, who is known for ‘Bigg Boss 14’, ‘Fear Factor: Khatron Ke Khiladi’, and ‘Naagin 4’, has said that it was very difficult for her to portray a serious character when she already has a set image of a very pleasant person.

In that case, it becomes very difficult for such an actor to convince their audience about the seriousness of a role. I consciously used to think every time on set that, ‘Jasmine is not here, the character is here’.”

The actress is currently dating Aly Goni. The two met for the first time in Mumbai, in 2018, before heading to Argentina. They were roped in for Rohit Shetty’s stunt-based reality show ‘Khatron Ke Khiladi’ for its season 9 with 10 others. While shooting in Argentina, they hit it off and became good friends. The couple will soon tie the nuptial knot.
