Nitanshi Goel and Chhaya Kadam
Nitanshi Goel impressed everyone with her portrayal of Phool in Kiran Rao’s film ‘Laapataa Ladies’. The actress, with her innocence, stole hearts. Recently, in a conversation with midday.com, Nitanshi got candid and shared the story of how she landed this role, her relationship with Chhaya Kadam, and more.
Nitanshi started off the conversation by telling the story of how she got the part in the Aamir Khan production. The actress shared, “It's actually a very fun story. The day I auditioned, I got the role. I was continuously auditioning, and then this one script really caught my eye. So I prepped overnight, and the next morning, I took a day off from school. The first thing I did was send my self-test to them. By the afternoon, I got a message that Kiran ma'am loved my audition and that Aamir sir wanted to meet me for lunch.”

She further added, “After giving my audition in front of them, on my way home, I got a call that I was on board, and I was like, 'Yay! Let's go!' I was so happy; it was such an emotional moment, and I cried happy tears.”
Nitanshi further shared that when she did TV, her original idea was to go back to Noida, but this career option made her stick to the city of dreams. “When I came from Noida to Mumbai, I remember I came here for just one show. But after that one show, my interest increased. I wanted to do this. So, from being a fun activity, it became something I got very serious about,” Goel said.
When asked why she didn’t choose a mass entertainer for her big debut, the actress said that for her, this was the best decision as there are only a few characters that are written the way Phool has been. She said, “I think this has to be my best debut. I don't want anything better than this because very few stories are made, very few characters are created, which are so beautiful.”
Sharing her cute bond with her Laapataa Ladies co-star Chhaya Kadam, Nitanshi mentioned, “I used to call her Manju Mai. We literally made that dadi-beti bond.”
Further, she said that while filming the scene where Chhaya and Nitanshi’s characters were parting ways, both actors actually cried. The actress explained, “When my character was finally leaving for Surajmukhi, and we're saying goodbye to each other, these two beautiful characters are parting ways. When we shot that scene, none of us used glycerine because we were already feeling so emotional. So when we hugged, we started crying in the scene itself.”
