From Ads To Silverscreen – Coco Cola Girl Onima Kashyap Is Traversing The Spectrum Like A True Star

    Onima’s favourite commercial was for Limca directed by Ram Madhvani. The actor recalls, “Every ad came through after rigorous auditions. Onima finds  the ad industry incredibly professional while being exhilaratingly creative as  well. We asked her that her magic bricks ad made quite an impression when it  came out. Does doing ads contribute to the actor in you She explains with a laugh, “The real test of an actor in an ad is to emote in just 30 seconds as the script is  more concise. If I can connect to the audience, inhabit a character and tell astory in such a short span of time I feel I have done my job in a good way. I love  doing ad campaigns and I want to continue doing it.” Onima has shared screen space with actors like Shahrukh Khan, Amitabh  Bachchan, Amir Khan,` Vivek Oberio, Anushka Sharma and Rajkumar Rao. Her  learning from these veterans, she says, is how to be an indulgent performer.  Her honesty brings out the truthfulness of the character she plays onscreen.]]>
