Ashnoor Kaur As Mini Khurana Is Sony Entertainment Television's Patiala Babes

Tell us about your role in Patalia Babes?

Ashnoor Kaur (AK): Patiala Babes is a compelling and endearing story of a unique mother daughter bond between Mini and her mother Babita (Babes). I am playing character of Mini who is a teenage girl from Patiala and is very fashionable, witty, stubborn, Idealist and a go getter. Mini is protective and possessive about Babes even though they do bicker, over silly stuff, like any Mother-daughter-duo. They laugh a lot at silliest of jokes, cry at silly mushy scenes of Hindi Romantic films, do not eat till the other has not eaten, wait to share the day’s experience with each other.  their emotional interdependence forms the very core of their relationship. Mini is always with her mother and she is also her priority.

Being a Punjabi, did it help you for your character? Do you connect with the character?

(AK): As we always lived out of Punjab, but as my parents and relatives converse in Punjabi, I picked up the language and the accent. I would like to say that I am a method actor. While on set, I like to spend time on my own so I can fit into the character better. I believe it is important for an actor to completely understand the character they will be portraying because it affects the dynamics with the other actors.  This is a character that is very much like Ashnoor. The way Mini possess her mother and behaves with her, I share a similar relationship with my real mother.  I am glad that we are bringing a character like Mini. There are a lot of things that I will learn from her and I am looking forward to playing this role.

Tell us about your bond with Paridhi Sharma?

(AK): Babes aka Paridhi is a dream to work with. When we met we completely hit it off! She is very sweet and understanding and the best part is that we know the technicalities of our acting so we understand each other. I enjoy working with her as we improvise our lines together and add additional things where ever needed.

The show is about relationship between mother and daughter. How is your relationship with your real mother?

(AK):  For any girl her mother is her first best friend. The way Mini sees her mother and cares for her is something that really touched me. It was the bond of Mini and Babes that made me take up this show. The true reason is that I have a similar bond with my mother as well. She is someone who has always been with me on every set. She has sacrificed a lot in life to support me and my career. She is the reason why that I have been able to do so many things in life. This role of Mini is an ode to all the scarifies that she has made for me. This is a way for me to say thank you Maa

How is it coming back to Sony Entertainment Television?

(AK): It feels really good to be back to back on SET for 2 shows, previous one being Prithvi Vallabh. I am looking forward and hope this show also do well.

How was your outdoor shoot in Patiala? You guys got a lot of love the locals. Anything special that happened?

(AK): Patiala shoot was the first time that we met most of our team mates and we shot extensive sequences. Be it the Gurudwara or local market we had a lot of fun exploring new places in the city. Moreover, we got a chance to try the local food because a lot families would bring us food. From enjoying local white butter to binging on panner tikka we had a brilliant time. The locals were very supportive and also gave us enough time to shoot. I just hope we get to go back and shoot again.

You have an interesting look. Tell us a little about it?

(AK): I didn’t really have to change my physical appearance. I am wearing very funky clothes which are actually very comfortable. Moreover, I get to experiment with my hair which is something I am very excited for. At times, I keep them open of braid it in various way. Many a times I look at the hairstyles online and try to copy the same with my hair didi.

Patiala Babes starts 27th Nov Mon-Fri, 9pm only on Sony Entertainment television
