“I’m God’s favorite child’ says she. Jennifer Winget surprised everyone when she turned down the offer to play the lead on the reputed filmmaker’s TV show, Saraswatichandra. In fact for her entry scene in this show, she had to shoot in a lake with freezing cold water at 4 am on a January morning. She has hosted and taken part in several reality shows. Eastern Eye placed her at 21st position on its list of World’s Sexiest Asian Women for 2012. The actress recently won the HT TV’s Style Icon Of The Year award. Less of makeup and elegant outfits define her style. You all know her as Maya in the romantic thriller ‘Beyhadh’ in Sony Entertainment Television for which she has recently gone ‘bald’ (the plot demanded it).
