My experience: I was one of the BollyIdol judges, and as the co-writer, I ensured the shortlisted applicants were suitable for the characters. When Fagun couldn't perform on some dates due to her exams, I became her understudy. (I was the last resort). For me this year has been the best ever as not only have I seen my one paragraph story develop into a show, but I have actually overcome my phobia of acting!!!

Playing Shania is quite fun! I love the costumes I have to wear as her & the overall styling it’s just so Barbie - DARING but nice. I also love the insecure looks on the faces of women I meet in the foyer after the show. However I enjoyed playing the part of Tara better as it allowed me to take all my daily frustrations out on the set whilst rehearsing without having to be nice to anyone after all it’s method acting!!!

PB has taught me that everything is achievable through hard work, patience, team work, innovation, improvisation, planning & above all FAITH in Samir Bhamra - The man who not only makes dreams come true but is actually the creator of dreams. I must add that this man has shouted at me more than he has at anybody else but then again he is the only person who knows how to bring out the best in me & actually knows what the best in me is.
 
What next: I’ll continue working in the factory of dreams with Samir weave our next dream Big B - The Musical.
