Films and life go together for Tisca Chopra
“You are lucky if you are passionate about your job. That way you won’t have to work another day,” says Tisca Chopra. Pearls of wisdom from an actor who has dabbled in films, theatre, television and will be seen shortly in Aamir Khan’s directorial debut Taare Zameen Par. The model vouches Aamir is as good a director as he is an actor.
“He has a deep understanding of human nature and knows how to translate it on film.” Tisca spent a lot of time bonding with the kids in the movie over games like X-box, Gameboy and Uno.
Currently, the Olay Total Effects believer is busy with Nandita Das’ directorial debut and a script she is co-writing with a friend. A travel buff, she likes to take off every two or three months to get a taste of different cultures. She straddles her dual role of homemaker and actor with ease. As she puts it, “you can build a great career on a great relationship but you can’t build a great relationship on a great career.” Indeed.
