This time, you're looking completely different. What's new about your character? Could you tell us more about it?

Yes, this time my character’s name is Rudrakshi. Rudrakshi is a very strong and unique character that I have never portrayed before in any film. I am very happy that I got the opportunity to play such a role. Rudrakshi is the "Queen of the Land" and she believes she is a goddess. Accepting or rejecting her terms completely depends on her own will. This character was a great challenge for me because I always look for roles that are different and challenging.
Your face tattoos and jewelry are also very intriguing and beautiful. Could you tell us more about them?

Rudrakshi is not a typical female character. When I was told about this role, it was made clear that Rudrakshi is always among men, leading them. She is like a dacoit who controls everyone. She gives orders to the men and makes them dance to her tunes. This time, my look is very different. I’m wearing boots that are stylish and powerful.
As for the tattoos, it takes a lot of time to get them done on the face. They need to be done very carefully, and if they go wrong, they have to be redone, which requires a lot of effort. Similarly, wearing jewelry is also quite troublesome, but I believe the audience will love the way it looks on screen.
Playing such a powerful and distinct character must be challenging. Does it not feel difficult? Your character has a very strong aura. What challenges do you face while portraying such a role?

Yes, it is very challenging. When you play a strong character, you have to portray many emotions and take on many responsibilities. But for me, it's a great challenge because I am always looking for roles that are different and challenging. I still have many characters in mind that I would like to play. I believe this character is very unique and special, and I enjoyed portraying it. When Rudrakshi speaks, her words have an impact, and I always try to bring that impact to the screen in the best way possible. The audience expects this, and I’m happy that I’m playing this character.
You have worked with the directors of this show before. What has your experience been like working with them?
/bollyy/media/media_files/2024/12/04/monalisa-prem-leela-interview-12345.jpg)
Yes, this is the fourth time I’m working with them. I’m very happy that I always get the chance to work with them. It’s been a fantastic experience, and I hope this continues in the future.
Could you tell us more about the story of the show? What is your relationship with Leela in the show?
/bollyy/media/media_files/2024/12/04/monalisa-prem-leela-interview-1234556.jpg)
The story of the show is very different. Leela is also very strong. She always wants to make me happy and is constantly trying to do things that would please me. However, I am always focused on taking revenge. Despite that, she never gives up and keeps trying. When Leela meets Prem, he spreads love everywhere. But we both are completely opposite to him. Leela wants to destroy Prem, whereas she wants to end the love that he represents.
What message would you like to give to your fans?
I have always received a lot of love from my fans. I hope Rudrakshi gets as much love from all of you because this is a very unique story. When you watch it, I’m sure you’ll enjoy it. The show will air from December 16th at 9:30 PM, Monday to Saturday, on Dangal TV.
