Actress Pavitra Punia who is fascinated to play the glamorous baddie characters on television, is yet again back on the TV screens as the Vishkanya in Sony SAB’s show Tenali Rama, produced by Contiloe Pictures. Seen as Laila the court dancer, with the dark image of being Vishkanya, Pavitra has cast her magical spell on the audience again.
Says Pavitra, “I like the role of Vishkanya in Tenali Rama. I always wanted to play a role around the snakes, naagin etc. The role of Vishkanya is apt to my requirement. Above all, this is my genre also, and I have been known to portray such kinds of roles in TV. I handle such roles too well. I am thankful that I got this role. I love this role the way it is shaping up.”
Talking more about her role in the show, she says, “It is a deadly role. Anything that is poisonous and deadly on screen is what I live for (smiles). I have never seen Tenali Rama earlier. When the first edition of the show was on air, I was part of the channel’s other show Baalveer. I did not get time to have a look at Tenali Rama as I was busy with my show. Now, I am watching Tenali Rama after my entry, and I must tell you, it is great to be a part of this show.”
Pavitra is amazed at the high level of expertise that actors on the show exhibit. “After I entered Tenali Rama, I sat and watched actors get into their roles. All the acotrs are doing their roles amazingly well. I get star-struck sometimes seeing them on screen. They play it beautifully and the execution is great.”
On entering the show midway, Pavitra states, “My audience knows that I am known to play deadly roles. They always wait for that twist that I usually create on screen. I am nervous this time, as I have entered the show midway. So I am pensive about how my entry will be treated by the audience. Keeping my fingers crossed!.”
Best of luck!!
