LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: ‘AJLT’ star Sarita Choudhury was in a candid mood as she addressed the press during the '75th Annual Writers Guild Awards' in Los Angeles on Sunday, March 5. During her interview, she talked about the trending question ‘Big or Aidan.’ It’s about the rivalry between John Corbett's earnest furniture artisan Aidan Shaw and Chris Noth's businessman John James 'Mr Big' Preston. "I was [on] neither [team]," Choudhury said bluntly. "I was always confused by the people who were on either team." She reasons, “Seema wouldn't go for either one, I can tell you. That's not my taste."

The 56-year-old talked about how her character in the show impacted her personal life. "I knew when I took it on. I was like, oh my God, she's the opposite of me." She continued, "I don't do anything that she does and I don't have that kind of, just the way she takes charge, I would like to with my entire life and I don't so it's been fun. Even though I'm playing her as a character, I'm starting to wonder what's shifting into my life and if she could help even the little things like coming to an event like this."
