Jennifer Winget: I am not really thinking about films right now, TV is keeping me very busy

Jennifer Winget’s debut film Phir Se with Kunal Kohli was shot extensively in London, however, the release of the film was affected due to various copyright issues. The film was then released on the web wherein it garnered positive response from the audience.

Talking about her career, Jennifer told to a leading Indian daily, “We had put in a lot of effort and expectations into the film and were expecting it to release at a certain time. This (online) release came out of nowhere and I wasn’t aware of it. One fine day, I learnt that the film was releasing. The response has been good, and I am happy about it.”

“Shooting the film was a special experience, and I was sad when it didn’t release, but then we moved on,” Jennifer added.

She went on a two year break for the film’s shoot. Talking about how frustrating it was for her to put her career on hold, Jennifer said, “I shot for a month and a half for the film, and I was in talks for TV shows after that. I never wanted to leave television and still don’t want to. Beyhadh took a little time to get started, and later we spent time preparing for the show.”

She added, “I won’t lie and say I have many film offers. I am not really thinking about films right now. TV is keeping me very busy. In the future, though, you never know.”

Currently, Jennifer Winget is occupied with the shoot of her new show, Bepannah.
