Mumbai, June 19 : Actress
Nisha Rawal, who essays
the role of a woman who tries to 'buy' her ex-flame back in "Main
Lakshmi Tere Aangan Ki", says her entry has brought in a major twist to
the show, but insists it's not a negative character.
The actress
has joined the Life OK show as Soumya, who offers to buy her former
boyfriend, Arjun (
Sudeep Sahir) from his wife Lakshmi (Shraddha Arya).
In the show, Arjun and his family have lost all their family wealth and Soumya offers to help them in this way.
Nisha admits her role is unusual for the small screen, but not negative.
"I
signed the show because I was told that I will be entering as the new
lead in the show. But Indian audience is not used to these kinds of
emotions and feelings. It's not a negative character at all," Nisha told
IANS.
"There are no evil expressions or planning and plotting.
This role is a prominent role and has equal importance and I am happy
with it," she added.
Justifying her character, she said: "Soumya
loves Arjun and cannot see him in these circumstances. She likes Lakshmi
too but at the same time, if she gives away everything she has to
Arjun, she will have nothing left. This is why she offers a barter deal.
Soumya is not trying to buy Arjun, she is not evil at all."
The
twist is loosely based on the lines on Anil Kapoor-Sridevi movie
"Judaai", in which Urmila Matondkar's character gives Sridevi her wealth
in exchange of her husband, played by Anil.
But TV as a medium is very different from Bollywood. Therefore, the consequences of the twist will also differ, says Nisha.
"In
TV, the
TRP lead the consequences. The story keeps twisting and turning
according to them. The serial has a similarity to 'Judaai' till now,
but now I don't know what will happen. It's going to be very interesting
and unpredictable," added the model-turned-actress.
Nisha has
been a part of B-town too. She featured with Jimmy Sheirgill-starrer in
"Hastey Hastey", which didn't do well at the box office. She was later
seen in 2008 film "Rafoo Chakkar".
