Sanjay Kapoor didn t get content to prove himself: Niki Aneja

New Delhi Nov 13 (IANS) Actress Niki Aneja Walia says her "Dil Sambhal Jaa Zara" co-star Sanjay Kapoor has not got the right content to prove his acting talent.

Asked how it is to work with Sanjay Niki told IANS over phone: "It s amazing working with Sanjay. I did Shaandaar with him... There we had a lot of off-set fun. But here it s amazing for me because this is for the first time I am genuinely seeing the potential Sanjay has. Sanjay as an actor hasn t been given the coverage character and content to prove (himself).

Niki says Sanjay is doing a great job in the Star Plus show.

"He is doing such a good job (in Dil Sambhal Jaa Zara ). More than anything else he is so much fun on the set. He s witty and generous always on time very professional and old school which I love.

Niki says it s fun to work with Sanjay who is the younger brother of Bollywood actor Anil Kapoor and producer Boney Kapoor.

"I am so thrilled that I am getting to work with him " she added.

Niki had made a comeback with "Dil Sambhal Jaa Zara" after a decade. She says she wanted to have a balance between her personal and professional life.

"It s a decade exactly. My kids have turned 10 I left when I was pregnant. I was away because it was a conscious decision I had twins. It was very hard to handle two kids and a career. I wanted to wait for them to become of age where I could not feel guilty about leaving them... I was just balancing my personal and professional life " she said.

Niki who is fondly remembered as Dr. Simran from "Astitva - Ek Prem Kahani" says she took ten years to make a comeback because she never came across a character as strong as Simran.

"I either wanted to come back with something at par or better. What I found was Laila was distinctly different and extremely challenging for me as an actor..." she added.
