Comedy is Saloni’s favorite kind of.

“We all know that comedy is the most difficult thing to master, you must train a lot since your timing in comics has to be spot-on.

I don’t care what number times keep going because I am awed by being present in the moment. I’m completely present.”

“And I’m enjoying myself while I’m there and not worrying about any other thing. I’m doing whatever is on my thoughts. In terms of comedy films It’s been a long time since I’ve watched such films in theaters. I love films such as “Bhool Bhulaiyaa 1” and “Hera Pheri”. I’m looking forward to going to the theater and see a comedy film and really am enjoying myself. I’m hoping to be included in the film she adds.

If she was not an actor, nevertheless Saloni is sure to do something within this field only since she believes she is destined to work in the entertainment industry.

“Either I’d like to be a director or cinematographer. I’ve not been thinking about it too much, but I’m currently pursuing the Bachelor’s degree on Mass Media right now. I’m planning to also go out to learn about filmmaking. However, I am certain that I wouldn’t have done more to get into this field.

“So I’d love to be behind the scenes even if I was you were not an actor, because I like being part of the set and business,” She wraps her remarks.
