Yo
We're a perfect pair, like PB&J.
Hey, my name is Saara Chaudry,
and I play Amy
on the new Family Channel show Holly Hobbie.
Something interesting is happening here.
Announcer: Holly Hobbie.
Holly Hobby is a coming of age story.
It's kind of that time where you have one foot
in the kid world,
and one foot in the adult world.
That time when you love your parents,
but you might not always agree with them.
But it's also that time when
your best friend is the most important person
in the world to you,
and that's who I play: Holly's best friend, Amy.
You know, you'd like Piper if you gave her a chance.
You guys have a lot in common.
It's just always been the two of us against the world.

Craft services is the best thing on set,
and will forever be the best thing on set.
It is food all day, every day, 24/7 whenever you want it.
So that has always been my favourite thing
about being an actor, quite honestly.
But in all seriousness being behind the camera
is always an adventure.
It's very different from set to set
wherever you go.
On Holly Hobbie it was very fun for me
because I was surrounded by kids.
Like all of the other actors that were with us, and with me,
were around my age which hasn't always been the case
in every show I've been on.
I've either been the oldest or the youngest,
and I've never really been a part of the show
where I was with co-workers of the same age.

I will never forget the patent fight.
There is a little inside scoop, there is a patent fight.
Basically we took about a couple hours
to film the first part of the scene,
but we couldn't get to the throwing paint part
Because they wanted to keep our wardrobe nice and clean
before everyone just like went crazy
and poured paint on everyone.
Because we had to wait, there was so much suspense
and we had to wait, wait, wait
until we got to throw paint at each other,
and then we just went crazy and we got buckets of paint,
just, like, bloop, it was so much fun.

I had to work with the horse, and the horse was not
behaving on set one day, and I had to like, like you--
You'll see in one of the episodes
I'm like pulling the horse and the horse just kept on
like wanting to turn around and I was like, "No.
Get-- please."
It would be nice if you supported me.
So all that stuff you said at trials was true?
For as long as we've been friends
you've been the one on stage,
and I've cheered from the audience.
I want a chance to shine too.

It definitely made me realize that not everyone's perfect,
and everyone makes mistakes,
and it's okay to fight with a friend.
But as long as you go back,
and apologize and recognize what you did wrong,
and learn from your mistakes and grow from them,
that's the most important thing in life in general.
Just growing from every experience that you have.
Thanks for having my back.
I couldn't have done it without you.
I know the feeling.
Come on, you could have done it all yourself.
Yeah, that's what I'm saying.

There's just some fire inside of me that loves doing what I do.
I love acting.
I love being a role model for younger kids.
I love putting myself out there.
I'm the type of person
that's-- that loves making mistakes and embarrassing myself
because I love having funny stories to tell after.

The entire town can see this?
More like the entire world.
I love being an actor because I love portraying
different characters, channelling different emotions.
And honestly I love just being a kid
and getting to live that normal life as well,
just like Hannah Montana.
I get the best of both worlds.
