"I have seen 'Deool' which is a very good film. But, I could not see
'Bharatiya' as there were no shows in Bandra, where I presently live. All nearby
theatres were booked with 'Ek Tha tiger'. But, when I go to my mother's place in
Khargar, I get to see Marathi films there," says Tejaswi, who loves to watch
quality films. "I don't see all Hindi films, unless I know that it is a good
film, from my point of view," she says. Tejaswi has also done few ad films and
one of them is for Brooke Bond Tea with Sachin Pilgaonkar and Atisha Naik.
Having played different types of roles till now; she would love to play a simple
girl from a village or a chawl. "I wish, I get this kind of role soon," she
quips. Recently she played a modern girl |
opposite Santosh Juvekar in the film
'Aghor' which was released two weeks ago. Tejaswi has played the first lead girl
coming in the life of Santosh. She plays a bold girl who dares to challenge the
road side miscreants, who try to molest her. But, she commits suicide, when she
finds that her boy friend is unable to protect her from these people." It is
the deep impact that is created on his mind, with this episode, which makes him
rough and tough in the rest of his life," she says.

Petrol', where she played the wife of Santosh Juvekar in a mystery filled story.

their 'Spa business' which deals with relaxation methods, which can even be used
