Audience doesn't want to see me in different role: Delnaaz Irani

Actress Delnaaz Irani, known for her innocent and cute roles in films and television, feels the audience has accepted her in such characters.

The actress, who has been part of shows like "Yes Boss" and "Kya Huaa Tera Vaada", doesn't feel that her fans would like to see her in anything different and she is not complaining.

"There is a larger audience who make a image for an actor. They have seen me in that image and they like me in that. I don't think they would want me to do something different. I am okay with that, as long as audience likes me and it works for me," Delnaaz told IANS.

She further added that she would not like to take a chance and do something which people don't like her in. However, she is open to good offers.

"I don't want to do something which people don't like me in. It is about who will take a chance and risk. If some producer wants to take a chance and give me something different, then he can," she said.

Talking about newcomers coming into the industry, she said it tough to bag different roles.

"With the kind of competition which exists today, it is tough to get a different role or a different character every time. But I am okay with playing similar roles, if the audience likes me in it," she said.

But the actress has played a negative character in her play, "See No Evil, Hear no evil, Speak No Evil and Do No evil"

"I am playing shades of grey in this play. It's an English play. I am playing a different role in that," she said.

Irani said that she likes to keep all three mediums of acting; films, television and theatre alive.

"After one daily and a play, I want to do more movies. I like to keep all my three mediums alive. I have had a trend of doing at least two plays over the year. I have one or two shows on TV. I am hoping for more films to happen," said Delnaaz, who shared screen space with superstar Shah Rukh Khan in 2003 movie "Kal Ho Naa Ho".

The actress is currently seen in television show "Kehta Hai Dil Jee Le Zara"
