New Delhi: ‘Saat Phere’ fame Rajshree Thakur, who is making a comeback
to the small screen after three years, says her motto is to do prominent
characters that suit here personality.Best known for playing dusky Saloni in
‘Saat Phere’, which was her debut on the small screen, she will now be
seen as Jeevantha Bai (Maharana Pratap`s mother) in Sony`s upcoming show
‘Bharat Ka Veer Putra - Maharan Pratap’.
"I would like to do a
variety of roles but it should suit my personality. I would not do
something which I don`t like,” she told IANS.
Rajshree, who is making a comeback after three years, has always been fascinated by historical stories and characters.
She
said: “It`s a historical character and I always wanted to do something
like this. I am making a comeback and it`s a role I always had a
fascination for.”
"After `Saat Phere` I had decided that I will
do something strong and prominent. And this role came my way, so, it
feels great,” she added.
The 31-year-old actress feels that both
the characters - Saloni and Jeevantha Bai are a bit similar to each
other as “both of them are strong women”. “It`s not just a motherly
role, but it`s also about a woman," she added.
“Maharana
Pratap`s father married 19 times after Jeevantha Bai. So you will see
much more than a mother - how she feels after her husband gets married
19 more times and how she is solely responsible for Maharana Pratap,
etc. So it`s a very strong character like Saloni.”
Talking about
her co-actor Faisal Khan (Maharana Pratap), she appreciated his hard
work and said “there are a lot of things that I can learn from him”.
She
knew Faisal as the DID (‘Dance India Dance’) winner, but when he
started reading his lines during a mock shoot, Rajshree was totally
amazed.
She said: “Nobody would say that he is doing it for the
first time. He is very hard working. He is very talkative, he talks a
lot and asks a lot of questions. If something is missing in a scene, be
it in costumes or the sets, he will immediately point it out, and he is
very concerned. He just gets into the scene.”
