Kritika Singh Yadav opens up on being part of Aukaat Se Zyaada!

Actress Kritika Singh Yadav, who plays the character of Mishka in Aukaat Se Zyaada on YouTube channel Freshh Mint produced Inspire Films.  She says that she loved the storyline and the characters in the show, produced by Yash and Mamta Patnaik.

“Honestly, everything happened very suddenly. I wouldn’t say it was a planned decision. I auditioned, and my character was finalized pretty late, around 10 to 15 days before everything was set. The rest of the casting had been going on for two to three months. I auditioned for Mishka’s character, and they liked it. The same day, I went to meet the team, and after that, I signed the contract. It was really a good feeling for me—I wanted to do something after TV, and this opportunity was on my plate. I thought, why not? Let’s give it a try. It was something fresh and new, a college drama, and that’s what made me say yes to this role,” she says.

Talking about Mishka's character, she says, “Mishka is somewhat like me, but also different in many ways. She’s a college student who’s in love with a guy named Rohan, but it’s a toxic relationship. Rohan is a red flag, but Mishka is unaware of that. After meeting Adarsh, she starts to realize that something is wrong and that this isn’t how a relationship should be. She’s lost her identity along the way. Mishka is strong, but love is her weakness, and I can relate to that because love is also my weakness. However, we differ in how we think and behave. While Mishka’s love is her vulnerability, she also has a strength that I connect with, even though our approaches are different.”

She says that the role came quite naturally to her. “Honestly, I didn’t do much prep work for Mishka’s character. The instructions were to be honest and true to the character, as she’s very much like a girl next door who’s in love. It didn’t require extensive preparation, but I did focus on understanding her psychology—what she thinks when she does certain things for Rohan. That mindset is something I always keep in mind, especially as the character evolves,” she says.

Sharing her experience of working with Yash Patnaik and Mamta Patnaik at Inspire Films, she says, “This is my first project with Beyond Dreams' Inspire Films, and it’s been a good experience. I met Yash Sir and Mamta Ma'am, and they are very clear-headed about what they want for this project. I really appreciate their clarity of thought. From day one, the vibe with them and the entire crew has been very positive. Both Yash Sir and Mamta Ma'am are cool and easy to work with, and I think that good vibe is going to reflect on screen. It’s been wonderful meeting them, and I hope to work with them on other projects as well.”
