Ram Kapoor on working with Prachi Desai in Kasamh Se
In an interview with Siddharth Kannan, Ram Kapoor on working with Kasamh Se co-star Prachi Desai, said, “I was the main lead, I was the hero and I had a 17-year-old opposite me, what is the problem? The story was such! She was 17 when she started working. When we went to Dubai for shooting I had to sign a form and become her legal guardian to enter the country. But the story was such and I trusted Ekta (Kapoor, the maker of the show). I trusted her casting. At that time she (Prachi) was totally new but look at how fantastic she was in Kasamh Se”.
When asked if he is still in touch with her, he said, “Bilkool. Bacchi hai meri. Recently, about a year or so back, we met up and also shared a picture on Instagram."
Details Ram Kapoor shared on her Prachi Desai leaving TV for Bollywood
When Ram Kapoor was asked about Prachi Desai’s transition from TV to Bollywood, he said, “I don’t know. She is another person who left television for films. But she left it for the right film because she left Kasamh Se for Rock On (2008) opposite Farhan Akhtar. Rock On became a hit. Nobody at that time… I could not point a finger at her and ask, ‘Prachi, what are you doing?’ Yes we had a superhit show but Rock On is a Farhan Akhtar film and she is playing his wife, opposite him.”
“So it wasn’t a secondary role. So technically she didn’t do anything wrong. After that I don’t know what she did or didn’t do. You have to make the right choices. If you are lucky enough to get work then you have to make the right choices. If you make one wrong choice, maybe you are lucky enough to get a second chance. Make two wrong choices, ‘bye bye’”, Ram Kapoor concluded.
For the unversed, Kasamh Se is about three sisters named Bani, Pia and Rano come to Mumbai to fulfil their father's wish after his untimely demise. The show aired for three years, ie, 2006-2009.
