Making people laugh is not easy, therefore an actor faces a lot of challenges to make sure their gigs don’t get wrong anywhere shares Khanna. “Timing is extremely important, you also need to get the right expression, be at the right place, even writing, direction, editing everything must be perfect, at sync. Comedy is not a one-person thing and if it is situational comedy then teamwork is required otherwise it is like a stand-up act. But both options are equally difficult. As an actor needs to be spontaneous and enjoy the jokes himself/herself or else the performance might fall flat,” she says.


Khanna is all praises for the producer of the show. “Edit-II production house is one of the finest production houses that I have worked within so many years. I have worked with them before so I can vouch for it. They are very particular about actors, they make sure they are happy, comfortable and create a healthy environment for all. This production house run behind good actors and are not partial. Binaiferr maam is someone who doesn’t like to let go of people and is always standing up for her artists. The team working for this production house is strong and efficient. Our director Shashank Bali is a wonderful person to work with. He is open to actors’ improvisation and prefers teamwork,” she shares.

 While shooting in the new normal is different but Khanna is enjoying every bit of the experience. This is her second show after the industry resumed work when the lockdown restrictions got lifted. “Unlike earlier time now every sneeze scares us. The moment anyone sneezes s/he gets nasty looks from everyone,” she jokes before adding, “Well, we follow all precautions and are very careful about the way we function. I just hope people understand the efforts we are putting and enjoy watching Jijaji Chhat Parr Koii Hai every day at 10 pm on Sony SAB.”
