It is a great learning experience personally and I am looking forward to it with great enthusiasm.” Neha Joshi who is making her debut with this show said, “This isn’t just my debut on Hindi Television but also my debut in the role of a mother. And I couldn’t be more honored to get an opportunity to play the role of a mother of a great man who fought all his life to remove discrimination, degradation, and deprivation from society, and went on to become the founding father of the Indian constitution. Bheema Bai (Ambedkar’s mother) was a humble woman who sincerely supported her husband and encouraged her children to do better. She wished to give them a better life and worked hard for their well-being.I urge my fans and viewers to please tune in to Ek Mahanayak – Dr. B R Ambedkar by subscribing to the Zee bouquet of channels as per the new TRAI mandate.
