00:45He had a good time, but he didn't have the means to study further.
00:53He had a lot of interest, but to run the house, he became a lab assistant.
00:59Where he sees that science talks are going on, scientists are doing something for the country.
01:04And he really wants to do something for the country.
01:08When he sees in his daughter, that my daughter's goal is to have a son,
01:15he pushes his son to study science.
01:18But his son is not interested in science, he is interested in music.
01:22His daughter has a lot of interest in science.
01:25She remembers planets, etc.
01:28It is a great honor for me to become India's first female astronaut.
01:33She is very young, and she is very inspired by her father.
01:38She wants to erase the stain on her father.
01:43I feel, for her age, she is very inspiring and ambitious.
01:49She is beautiful, and she tries her best.
01:55And she is a very brilliant student as well.
01:58I think it is a beautiful character to watch.
02:00So what preparations were made for this character?
02:03Well, I studied a little bit about space.
02:06Since childhood, I was very curious about space, planets, etc.
02:14So, I studied a little bit.
02:16So, I have to study a lot in this as well.
02:19I am back to class 12.
02:21But it is super fun.
02:23How does it affect your own self?
02:26Honestly, I am not a very good student.
02:29Because, I was a backbencher, a mischievous girl.
02:35My dad wanted me to become something else.
02:38But he has always supported me in becoming an actor.
02:42He wanted his daughter to study well.
02:45But I always wanted to become an actor.
02:48So, I think Azeem and Apollina are very different.
02:51But at the same time, as an actor, it is my challenge to show Apollina to you all.
02:58So, let's see what happens.
03:00You also have an experience of 20 years.
03:04Did you start in your 20s?
03:07No, no, no.
03:09I am a new admission.
03:12Yes, not that one.
03:14So, I am in my 20s.
03:17It's been 7 years.
03:19Hi, welcome to Gujarat Headline.
03:23What do you think about this Navratri here in Ahmedabad?
03:25We are very excited.
03:26I am super excited.
03:28Because this is my first time in Ahmedabad.
03:30And it feels so good.
03:32It feels like the perfect timing to come here.
03:35And I have recently learned a few steps of Garba.
03:39So, I am very excited that we will do Garba today with everyone.
03:44So, I am very excited for that.
03:46And you?
03:48Garba is a Gujarati tradition in the world.
03:50We have never done it in Gujarat.
03:53We have been doing it for a long time.
03:55So, we are in the source now.
03:57You get energy from Mata ji.
03:59So, we will go here and take Mata's blessings.
04:01For the new serial.
04:03And we will do it very well here.
04:05We are very excited.
04:07It's my first time in Ahmedabad.
04:09And we are very, very happy to be here.
04:11So, tell me about your character playing in Apollina.
04:13My character's name is Girdhar.
04:15And she is Apollina.
04:17And Girdhar is Apollina's father.
04:19Right.
04:20And he wanted to do a lot for his country through science.
04:25But he couldn't because he didn't have means.
04:28And then when he sees the same fire, same desire in his daughter.
04:33Then he finds a way to fulfill his dreams through his daughter.
04:40And he supports her in all the ways and all the time.
04:51So, that's what.
04:53Sometimes when a father has a dream and he can't accomplish.
04:58So, not to make his children have the same dream.
05:03But when he sees the same dream in his child.
05:05Then that becomes kind of a new source of happiness and inspiration for him.
05:12So, I am there to support my daughter.
05:15And to see how my daughter can fulfill her dreams.
05:21At the same time also serve the country.
05:24Is Apollina going to fulfill your dreams?
05:26She is inspiring.
05:29And definitely she is trying to achieve the same.
05:32And basically it's her dream.
05:36But it's her father's dream as well.
05:39So, she is very, very, very focused.
05:42And I really hope you will have to watch the show for that.
05:45Definitely watch the show if she will be able to fulfill her and her father's dream.
05:49Watch it to know.
05:51What special preparation you have to make for this character?
05:54Definitely we are very excited.
05:56We are very excited and we are getting a lot of new information from our creators.
06:02To help us know the character better.
06:05Know the people who do the same.
06:07About astronauts and about planets and universe.
06:10This story is about Sunita Williams.
06:12Have you seen her or met her?
06:14Yes, I have seen her.
06:16Not met her of course.
06:18But I am very inspired by Sunita Williams, Kalpana Chawla.
06:21Definitely they are Apollina's inspiration as well.
06:23So, she definitely wants to become the first Indian female astronaut as well.
06:28So, let's see how far Apollina's dream will go.
06:32Did Khatron Ke Khiladi helped you?
06:34Khatron Ke Khiladi?
06:36Of course, that's the preparation.
06:38Yes, that is the preparation.
06:40She did that.
06:42Yes, absolutely.
06:44And apart from that, to become an astronaut you have to be physically very fit as well.
06:47And Apollina is being trained for the same.
06:49So, I think Aditi's fitness enthusiasm is also helping me in playing this character.
06:55Right.
06:57As a father, what message you want to give to the younger girls?
07:01To the younger girls, as a father, I would like to say that don't hold yourselves back.
07:06You know, your father is there to support you.
07:10In most cases, now I see fathers, they really have this new found motivation to support their daughters.
07:18Because now they know that daughters can do wonders and they can achieve as much as they want.
07:25So, to the girls, I will say just dream on.
07:31And your father or your mother or God will support you.
07:39Yes, the sky is the limit.
07:41Yes, the world is your playground.
07:43Just dream on.
07:44And don't ever ever think that being a girl should hold you back.
07:49What's your pipeline projects in future?
07:51In future?
07:53We just hope the show does well and runs for a very long time.
07:57Right.
07:59Tomorrow depends on today.
08:01Today we are doing Apollina.
08:03If Apollina does well, then we will do something better.
08:06Thanks. All the best for that.
08:08Thank you so much.
08:14Thank you so much.
