Popular actress Alpana Buch who is better known as Baa from Anupamaa produced by Deepa Shahi and Rajan Shahi speaks about her friends on the occasion of Friendship Day. She says, “Friendship is the hardest thing in the world to explain. It’s not something you learn in school.

But if you haven’t learned the meaning of friendship, you really haven’t learned anything. I am fortunate enough to learn in my childhood what friendship really means. Alpana as an individual is blessed to have so many ‘real friends ‘ who walk in when the rest of the world walks out. And on the other side Leela (Anupamaa) as a character also has many friends.

There are millions of people who love Leela Baa so much that they have accepted her as their best friend . They support Leela Baa, get angry at their friend Leela Baa when she is doing is wrong. Leela Baa’s fans across the world are her best friends.”

Talking about her best friend in real life Alpana says,”My best friend is the one who brings out the best in me. A good friend is a connection to life – a tie to the past, a road to the future, the key to sanity in a totally insane world .

I am lucky and blessed to have a long list of such true friends.” She also adds,”Dost banaaye nahi jaate, ban jate hai’…it’s all about wavelength. According to me friendship is perfect synchronisation of two similar energies. That’s the reason I have all my real friends , exactly as I wanted them to be transparent, open and honest.”

Alpana also shares how she maintains her friendship despite her busy schedule. She says,” In the modern world of communication, I think it’s not difficult to be in touch with your friends. Sometimes due to non stop shooting schedule; it’s difficult for me to be in touch with them, but I also believe that if it’s a real friendship, then it doesn’t need maintenance. It’s about being in each other’s thoughts forever.”

Alpana who is a popular face in the industry as well on the sets of Anupamaa says,”Everyone on the sets of Anupamaa is my friend. We are spending most of our time together on set, so I am surrounded by all like-minded friends, who are always there when I need their support, they are always there to cherish my happiness and share my sorrow.

A good friend is like a four-leaf clover; hard to find and lucky to have. Rupali Ganguly, who is my best friend off camera , playing my enemy on screen will always help me enhance my performance. The fun is that with whom Leela Baa fought during the scene shares her food as Alpana in lunch hour.”
