Lucknow: Telly queen Jennifer Winget, who was last seen in ‘Beyhadh’, was here for the promotions of her upcoming show ‘Bepannah’ on Monday. Love-struck with the city of nawabs, Jennifer revealed that everytime she visits Lucknow, she gets plenty of love from the Lucknowites.

Jennifer, who was here with the lead actors of ‘Bepannah’, also gorged on to Lucknow’s famous dish Tundey Kebabs, saying, ‘I fell in love with the Lakhnawi khana’.

Newstrack.com had a Q and A session with the lady heartthrob of Telly world Jennifer Winget:

How is this show different from your previous show 'Beyadh'?

‘Bepannah’ is 360 degree from ‘Beyadh’. ‘Bepannah’ is high on emotions and it is a story about second chances. The story is gripping and shows how to overcome over tragedies.

Your first flick ‘Phir Se’ got a release on Netflix and became successful. How you see yourself in Bollywood in the coming days?

Look, as I am doing a lot of daily soap so I rarely get a time to indulge myself in big screen project. We do intense scenes throughout the day so I like watching light-hearted shows, especially comedy. Even, I would love to do comedy onscreen.

You must have any star in your thought with whom you want to begin your Bollywood career?

I never think about it much because I concentrate completely on the project I work on.

Is this the first time you have visited Lucknow or you have come before also?

This is my third time in Lucknow. I always came here for shooting or promotion purposes only but I really want to arrive here for spending holidays.

Now, I have a friend here also (her Bepannaah co-star Namita Dubey). So, whenever Namita will enter wedlock, we will come to Lucknow and enjoy every flavour of the city.

What you liked in Lucknow or what attracted you?

The food of Lucknow is unmatched. We have eaten plenty of food yesterday, tundey kebabs, nahari etc. It is always good to visit here.

Along with Jennifer (Zoya), the show will feature Harshad Chopra as Aditya, Sehbaan Azim as Yash and Namita Dubey as Pooja.

'Bepannaah' will go on air from March 19 on Colors.
