Telly show Jee Le Zara, which explores the relationship between an older woman and a younger man, has good chemistry between its lead actors Sangeeta Ghosh and Ruslaan Mumtaz. And, true to their characters, both the actors believe that age has got nothing to do with love.
Says Sangeeta, who plays Saanchi in the show, "We wanted to showcase a romance, which is similar to any man and woman falling in love, regardless of their age difference. In today's times, a woman doesn't have to show restraint when a younger guy falls in love with her. Ruslaan and I bond like all co-actors do on the set. We have not made any extra effort to be friends."
Ruslaan, who plays Dhruv Goel, on the other hand, enjoys the fact that he is part of an unusual love story. He says, "When it comes to love, age is never a factor. Sangeeta is a talented actor, so we learn a lot from her. Also, we are quite similar, so I understand what she wants from a particular scene. Our friendship did not happen overnight. It was a natural process, getting to know each other like all colleagues do."
As Sangeeta adds, "Saanchi is around 35 years old, while Ruslaan is 27. Saanchi is unmarried because she has not found the right person, but she is not depressed or unhappy. So, when she finds a guy who loves her dearly, why should she shy away from expressing it?"
The next fortnight will focus on how Saanchi's family and the society refuse to accept the relationship because of their age difference. However, Dhruv stands up for Saanchi and explains how people should not stand in the way of her happiness.
Kehta Hai Dil...Jee Le Zara airs Monday to Thursday at 9.30 pm on Sony EntertainmentTelevision.
