Shweta’s six-year-old demanded a holiday in Hong Kong to do a commercial

IT’S MY WAY: Palak with her parents Raja Chaudhry and Shweta Tiwari

Shweta Tiwari’s (Prerna of Kasautii Zindagii Kay) six-year-old daughter Palak has done her first commercial, Gala Brush, but not before blackmailing her parents!

Lavu (Palak’s nick name) demanded that she would shoot for the advertisement only if her parents (Shweta and Raja Chaudhry) take her to Disneyland in Hong Kong during her ongoing summer vacations. Shweta and Raja had to accept her demand.

All together now

The ad, which features Shweta and Raja too, was shot at Jaipan Studios last Friday. Shweta and Raja have done Surya Bulbs, Progressive Paint and Divine Pendant ads together, but this is for the first time that Palak is also with them.

They play a family in the ad. Lavu learnt about Disneyland Hong Kong on a game show where the winner would win a free trip to the place. “Mujhe bahut achcha laga TV mein dekhkar aur main chahti thi ki main bhi wahan jaun,” she tells HiTLIST.

Jo vaada kiya…

Raja says, “She did what we told her. Now we have to fulfill our promise. I don’t know if we can leave this month, but we’ll definitely go next month. It will be fun.”

Shweta says that she has done many ads before, but this one was special. “Lavu was with me. And that made it very exciting and entertaining.”

“And yes, we will abide by the shart (condition) Lavu laid down to do this ad. I will not face any problem in getting around eight days leave from Kasautii Zindagii Kay. I will utilise the non-block dates for the holiday,” Shweta adds.

Lavu’s sure

Asked what would she do if her mom and dad break their promise, Lavu shoots back, “Aisa nahin hoga. Woh myjhe zaroor le jayenge.”
