Ulka Gupta playing Jhansi Ki Rani Bursting with energy is 12-year-old Ulka Gupta, the protagonist of
Zee TV’s historical magnum opus 'Jhansi Ki Rani'. From sword-fighting to
horse riding, this young girl is proving to be exceptionally talented
in playing the young 'Jhansi Ki Rani'.
Studying in the eighth standard in Rustomjee International School,
Mumbai, the young girl has missed many classes in her school because of
the show’s shooting schedules. Ulka’s father Gagan Gupta says, “Ulka has
already missed five unit tests so far because of her hectic shooting
schedules. But she will cover it up in the next exam in September. I
won’t compromise on her education. I’ve already told the production guys
that she will have to attend at least three days of school in a week.
For this, I am also keeping a tutor for her, who’ll be traveling with
her. The production guys will have to give her two hours of time
including lunch time, in between shots, for her studies. So that she
will at least
Ulka reveals, “I am a
little weak in studies and that’s why my father is trying to get a
tutor for me. He has already spoken to some people at Zee TV about it.
They are also supportive of his decision. Anyway, I always get my bag to
the place where we are shooting so whenever I have some time on the
sets I study.”
Talking about the role that she’s portraying in the
show, Ulka says, “Like Jhansi Ki Rani, even I am very patriotic in real
life,” and adds, “but I don’t think I act well. Aruna Iraniji and other
actors who are a part of this show inspire me to act well.” Sounds
unbelievable, especially after watching Ulka’s work on television —
undoubtedly, the girl has the zing required to be the li’l Jhansi Ki
Rani!
