An inspiring love saga about a tribal girl defying societal norms to pursue a career in the medical field, upcoming show on Colors, Durga, starring Pranali Rathod as Durga, Indira Krishnan as Paani Bai, and Aashay Mishra as Anurag, is all about facing opposition and emerging victorious.

About essaying the titular role, Pranali Rathod says, “Durga is a force to reckon with, named after the fierce Goddess we all look up to. Her battle is for her identity, her place in a world determined to hold her back. Durga’s fight isn’t just about her.” Excited to essay the role of Paani Bai, Indira Krishnan adds, “My character is deeply rooted in tradition, committed to preserving the rajgharana’s honour. For my character, upholding the rules of the past is her way of maintaining control in a world that’s constantly shifting. She stands firm against Durga, who dares to believe they can rise above their birth and station.”

Set in Jodhpur, the story follows Durga, a tribal girl with an audacious dream — to become a doctor. Driven by a deep-seated desire to heal not just bodies but the very fabric of society, she envisions herself in the transformative white coat. Ironically, fate brings unexpected love into Durga’s life — Anurag, a royal heir, who becomes the wind beneath her wings. On the other hand, Paani Bai, who shares Durga’s tribal roots, stands in her way as a staunch guardian of the status quo.

Sharing his thoughts about portraying Anurag, Aashay Mishra says, “Anurag is a man caught in the crossfire of two very different worlds — the weight of his royal lineage and the call of his heart. His love for Durga runs deep, and so does his commitment to supporting her dream of uplifting her community.”
