Exclusive! Yashaswini Dayama wishes to play Trinity from The Matrix, Aisha Ahmed wants to do action

Aisha Ahmed, Yashaswini Dayama and Viraj Ghelani were seen in the YA web series Adulting 3 last month. The third season of comedy-drama show was long-awaited by the fans to witness Ray and Nikhat’s (Yashaswini and Aisha) unbreakable bond and Manav’s (Viraj) comic timing.

OTTplay caught up with the three actors to talk about their journey in the show from the first season and about their experience of working together for quite a long time. The actors also talked about how the sudden burst of content on the OTT platforms is benefiting the young and aspiring actors. Excerpts.

Talking about her show Yashaswini mentioned that the third instalment was always in the pipeline. After the second season, the process for the third one began and it took quite a lot of time with writing, creating and more. Though we knew that we’ll jump back with the show this year (2021) but we didn’t exactly know when. 

Mentioning the same Aisha revealed that the show was actually about to release last year only, however, the pandemic delayed everything. 

Speaking about the show and his character Viraj cheerfully mentioned that he’s happy that in this season he is rejecting a girl and that’s what he likes about his character.

“This goes for all three of us that we are ourselves and also the opposite of ourselves in the show,” added Yashaswini about everyone’s character in the comedy-drama series.

She further said, “As you may have seen, this season we focused on Ray’s career and we also got some snippets of her family life and that’s what made my character special.”

“What I love about Nikhat, is that she’s really good with parents in season 3. You must have seen her talking to Ray’s dad and calming him down in the chaotic situations,” mentioned Aisha.

She further added, “Things that make Adulting 3 special is that it talks about female friendships and in the third season Nikhat and Ray are talking about sex and being more open than earlier.”

When quipped about how acting and comedy happened in Viraj’s life as he was pursuing engineering in college, the actor answered, “It started during my engineering days only and after a few semesters when I got a camera I started working as a comedian full-fledged and I dropped out of the college.”

Speaking of how the sudden burst of the content of OTT platforms has been beneficial for the young and aspiring actors, Aisha opined, “It means more opportunity. An actor now has more opportunities to choose the kind of roles he or she wants to do.”

However, Viraj’s opinion was a little different from everyone’s as he mentioned, “As a content creator it’s really exhausting for you, you always have to create something new. You have to be always up for the audience’s demand.”

“There is something really powerful about this also. So many people, who were depended on the system earlier, you yourself are the shot caller now,” mentioned Yshaswini.

When asked about the kind of characters that the three actors would like to portray in the future, the Rubaroo actor said that she would also like to work on a project full of action. While Viraj mentioned that he wants to play Baburao’s character from Hera Pheri.

The Delhi Crime actor also answered about the same and mentioned that she wants to play Trinity from Matrix. “I would like to work in a musical film too like La La Land,” she added and the cast of Adulting 3 signed off.
