Acting has always been her passion. In her real life too, she has played different roles. She is a naughty sister to her brother, the most obedient daughter to her parents as she is pursuing her post graduation in Business of film making & Television, besides doing her Masters in Arts from Pune University. She knows how important is education in the long run. For her, acting and education can go together.

Tejaswini Lonari, whom we saw in Sony TV’s Hindi serial ‘Chittod Ki Rani Padmini Ka Johur’ in the lead role, made her debut in Marathi films through ‘Guldasta’ opposite Makarand Anaspure and Jitendra Joshi. Her forthcoming film ‘Chinnu‘ directed by her mother Neelima Lonari, is due for release shortly. In this film, Tejaswini plays a village girl who comes to the city to get treatment for her ailing mother, but meets a stranger, who traps her in marriage. Later he sells her off to a Don. In this film Hindi TV artiste Sharad Kelkar plays her co-star, is shown as the right hand of the Don. In short, both the TV stars of Hindi are coming together in this Marathi film.

Marathi Movie World had a chit chat with this Hollywood style actress, during a function in Mumbai and found her to be the most upright young girl in Marathi film industry. According to Tejaswini, the character is more important, while playing a role. “More than offering entertainment, what challenges me is the impact I can create through my role. When people start recognizing me through my character, it will be the best compliment for me,” she feels.

Tejaswini is well aware of media strength in promotion of films. She considers media as the most important sector for a film maker and artiste. She has herself realised the importance of media, during the promotion of her latest film ‘Chinnu’. Talking about this film, she says, “A lot of awareness is to be created about the subject of this film and I am doing my best to meet people to tell them what message this film has for the society. My mother has really worked hard while making this film. Till now, we have received a good response from the people who have seen the promos of this film.”

“I would say that Media is a bridge between an artiste and the audience,” she says philosophically. “In the promotion of our film ‘Chinnu’ we are giving lot of importance to local newspapers from all places of Maharashtra.” Looking at her preparations, one feels that Tejaswini is very much concerned about the promotion of her film through all possible sources to reach out to masses. Marathi Movie World wishes her all the best for her film.
