How did the show happen for you?

I had already worked with Shashi-Sumeet productions, so they asked me to inform them once I was ready to make a comeback. I gave the auditions and they finalised me.

Tell us about your character…

I play Anmol Ratan Singh who is a bubbly and bright girl full of life, yet she is very mature for her age. Having done a course in nutrition, she is a health freak. Post her studies, she moved to Bareily with her parents where she wanted to start up a gym. How she ends up falling in love with a person completely different from her and how life goes for a twist will be for viewers to see.

So how is the comeback shaping up?

Oh, it is great. I must say I am lucky to have got a team where there is no negativity. It is really important that co-stars bond like family, so that you actually look forward to coming back every day on the sets.

Do you think the show will connect with the audience?

Well, the show is fresh and it is a youth show so it will surely attract viewers. Also, everybody loves romance, so they would be in for a treat with this love story.
