Asin’s south connection is working in Mumbai too. The lady has developed close familiarity with the beautiful actress Sridevi along with her two daughters, Jhanvi and Khushi. “Yes, at last I’ve made close friends in Mumbai. You’ve to see how close I am to Sridevi and her daughters. I spend almost all my nonworking hours with them,” tells Asin.
The foursome is so close that they’re always seen together. They share the same building and are found always in each other’s homes. “Jhanvi and Khushi are in my house all the time. The four of us get along like a house on fire. Sridevi is on the first floor and I’m on the sixth floor. We are always in each other’s homes. We go out to restaurants and movies. We just saw Harry Potter together,” tells Asin.
“She has completely taken me under her wing. Anything I need, I just have to ask her. Since she too started her career very young and is from the South, we share a very special bond. She was first a child artiste and I started playing the lead when I was only 14 years old. She has made it clear she’s there for anything I need. She’s a wonderful friend and neighbour,” Asin includes.

Asin is an avid lover of other kids in her building too. She says, “They’re all in and out of my home constantly. They bring in their friends, class mates and cousins from Ludhiana, Bhatinda, Rae Bareli and I don’t mind it at all. I enjoy it. I get along fabulously with kids and old people. The minute I’m off at 6pm, they’re all in my house. I haven’t had a chance to do it up yet. But I do have a favourite corner in my new home, my balcony. I like to be by myself in that corner”.
Apart from Sri, no one from the film industry has visited Asin’s house yet.
Asin tells, “They’re most welcome to visit anytime but I’m not having a housewarming party. I’m not the party type at all. Tabu lives on the third floor but I haven’t even seen her yet. Never run into her in the lift. But one of these days, I intend to change that. I really want to meet Tabu. But it’s so lovely to have Sridevi as my neighbour. Nope, lets not call her my neighbour, she’s my family now. She pampers me to the core. Anything I want to eat she gets it made for me in a jiffy.”
As far as her parents are concerned, the Ghajini fame tells, “They’re just five minutes away and visit whenever possible.” |
