Mita Vashisht is one name that is pretty famous in both – India television industry and Bollywood as she has worked in a good number of serials and movies and has proved her worth whenever she got a chance.
However, she didn’t play lead roles in movies and mostly she was seen in the role of sister or friend of the lead actress. A pass-out of National School of Drama, Mita made her debut in 1987 with Var Var Vari but she became popular after working in Rishi Kapoor and Sridevi starrer Chandni (1989).
There was a time when Mita got a chance to play the role of lead actress but she refused to do it as the director wanted her to compromise, she said, “He put a condition in front of me that I should stay with him for two months. But I did not compromise and said, keep your role and I went away. I rejected that offer at that very moment.”
Initially Mita thought that the director wanted her to learn the language but when she understood his real intentions, she left immediately.
Mita has worked in various TV serials such as Space City Sigma (1989–1991), Pachpan Khambe Laal Deewarein, Swabhimaan, Alaan (Kirdaar), Trishna in Kahani Ghar Ghar Ki, and Jethi Maa in Kaala Teeka. Here are some of her movies – Drohkaal, Kuch Khatti Kuch Meethi, Patalghar, Mujhse Fraaandship Karoge, and Rahasya.
That was really disgusting on the part of the director, what do you say?
