/> Sweeni has left behind Cheeni. She did bump into her Cheeni Kam co-star Amitabh Bcahchan recently, though.

"I met Amit Uncle at an awards function recently. He was very sweet. I enjoyed playing Sexy in Cheeni Kum. But now I've moved on to Hari Puttar, " says the wise 10-year old trying hard to balance movies, television, homework and friends on her frail shoulders.

"It's not really that hard, " says Sweeni sweetly. "I agree I don't get to do do the normal things girls my age do. But I enjoy what I'm doing. Hari Puttar was so much fun.

In Cheeni Kum I was working with people far older than me (Amitabh Bachchan, Zohra Sehgal, Tabu). In Hari I had Zain Khan as my co-star. We had a ball, although I must say Sarika Aunty and Jackie Uncle were also a barrel of fun."

Zain, says Sweeti grew from super-brat to solemn teenager in front of her eyes. "Because of the animation scenes Hari Puttar took a long time to make. In fact I went to London in-between for another film Cheeni Kum came back then went again for Hari Puttar, " Sweeni seems delighted by the vagaries of showbiz, and also surprisingly tolerant and patient.

"I do my best. Recently I've been shooting for a dance-based reality show and that was also fun. I'm doing one more film Kaalu where I play the main role.

And there's a witch chasing me throughout the film.Plesae see this film. It will scare the hell out of you. I get to do a lot of dangerous stunts in this film all on my own. There are rocks falling on me. But not to worry. The rocks were made of thermacole."

As for time with friends and to study Sweeni makes the required adjustments. "I carry my books on the sets and study between shots. It's not that difficult. I've gotten used to it by now. I do get time for friends.

Like today I had no school. I've just finished my school test. And I was home the whole day relaxing. That was fun. I do miss the time alone. And I do get tired. But my work is a lot of fun. I don't mind missing out on other activities."

Coming back to Hari Puttar Sweeni giggles, "Zain was very naughty with me when we shot the earlier portions. But as the film progressed he grew older and became very serious. I liked that. I don't like doing too much masti on the sets."
