Ayesha is playing the central female character in Rohit Shetty’s Sunday. In an interview with SantaBanta.com, she talks about her experience about working in Sunday.   

Q: Tell us something about your character in ‘Sunday’.

A: In this film, my character’s name is Sahar who works as a dubbing artiste for a cartoon network. She is a very forgetful kind of a girl and cannot remember things of the past and as a result she is often in problems.

Q: This is the first time that you are portraying a dubbing artist. Did you need to take any special preparation for this?

A: Actually Vikash, who had trained Tussar Kapur for the dumb character in ‘Golmaal’, has helped me a lot in doing this role to perfection.

Simultaneously, I used to watch a lot of cartoon films at home to prepare myself for the role which demanded that the facial expressions of the artist should match his voice.

While doing this role I have often noticed that the expressions of some dubbing artists are very loud and on the other hand, some people’s appearances are so funny that I often used to feel ashamed. I loved doing this role as it provided me with an opportunity to learn a lot of things.

Q: While preparing for the role you have watched a lot of cartoon shows. Which among them is your favorite?

A: I personally liked ‘Donald Duck’ and Mickey Mouse’ a lot and this is also because of the voice-overs in these shows. I also liked ‘Tom and Jerry’, but this is a silent cartoon show and hence I did not get much to learn from this show.

Ayesha enjoyed very much working with the other three actors of the movie: Ajay, Arshad and Irfaan. Ajay is a very sporting person but very protecitve. Arshad is always cracking jokes on the set. Rohit as a director is very serious but other times he was very friendly.
