Child actor Harshaali Malhotra, who plays a speech-impaired girl in Salman Khan‘s Bajrangi Bhaijaan, has touched the hearts of viewers with her endearing performance. But she is extremely talkative in real life, says her mother.
“Harshaali never keeps quiet. During workshops, Mukesh (Chhabra, the casting director) used to tell me that he was worried how she could keep quiet,” Harshaali’s mother Kajal Malhotra said in an interaction with the press.
“There is no difference in her as a person. The way she was earlier is exactly how she is now,” she said, emphasizing how shooting schedules haven’t affected Harshaali.
Shooting with a child was not only difficult for the filmmakers but also for Harshaali.
“Whenever there was action or any high-pitched sound, she would get scared. But Salman (Khan) and Kabir (Khan) would take special efforts to ensure that she interacts with other co-stars by playing, after which she became comfortable during the shoot,” Malhotra said.
Among the flood of compliments Harshaali’s has received, one which deserves mention was when Farah Khan calling her ‘the find of the century’.
The popularity Harshaali has received is there for everyone to see, but her mother says they will try to ensure that she balances studies and acting seamlessly.
“Whatever we’ll decide for her career would obviously depend on the offers we receive, but we wouldn’t prefer television very much,” she said.
Harshaali has also featured in adverts and acted in TV serials such as Qubool Hai and Laut Aao Trisha.
