Bharti Patil the prolific performer has had a vast career in Marathi and Hindi cinema. Presently, she is keeping her fan base engaged with her charm and appeal in Star Plus’ popular show Ghum Hai Kisikey Pyaar Meiin.  

As Ashwini Chavan, mother of Virat Chavan, Bharti is doing a commendable job. Her motherly affection for Virat and Sai get appreciated a lot.  

The perfect mother figure on TV today, Bharti Patil gets into a conversation with IWMBuzz.com.  

Excerpts:  

How is it playing the role of Ashwini?  

Ashwini is positive by nature. She loves and respects everyone. Always keeps her feet in other’s shoes and thinks. Very well cultured. I like to play such characters who give /have a positive impact on viewers. She is a sort of role model in the family. 

Ashwini and Sai share an amazing mother-daughter bond in the show. How is it off the screen?  

Ashwini and Sai have very much gelled up off-screen as well. Ayesha knows that by the grace of God she got an opportunity to play Sai.  She has grabbed it with both hands and gives her full per cent effort to playing Sai. I like this spirit of hers. I respect her efforts. We tend to meet only at the time of our shoot. So, we help each other to enhance our scenes and while doing this, we enjoy each other’s company with a very healthy bond. 

You ladies in the show get to wear some amazing sarees and jewellery. How do you enjoy wearing them? What kind of getup do you prefer?  

I as Bharati have grown up as a tomboy. Though I do not wear men’s clothing, I don’t like sarees at all. I am a Punjabi suit type lady. For Ghum Hai Kisikey Pyaar Meiin, I need to be dressed up really well.  I personally like a very simple, cotton sari with the least ornaments. Well, this is my choice.  

But as far as Ashwini is concerned, she is full of heavy sarees and ornaments. I am far away from this but people like my sarees, my ornaments, my simple twisted hairstyle. I get appreciated for my looks in the show. I have had many asking me who does my hairstyle (laughs). So, for my fans, I will go with this attire..?. 

How do you personally like the onscreen chemistry of Sai and Virat in the show?  

I like both Sai and Virat on screen, especially the scenes where they are together. They give their 100% to it. I dream as if I see my own son and daughter-in-law on screen. I love their chemistry.  

The show has been doing well. What do you think connects well with viewers?  

People like Sai and Virat’s chemistry, and their love story. They are eager to see Sai and Virat’s proposal scenes. People like to see Sai defeating Bhavani and group in debating. People like Sai’s innocence, Ashwini’s motherly nature, Bhavani’s rudeness, Virat’s love etc. They find their identity / themselves somewhere and in someone, in this show. In simple words, I will only say that people like the full package of GHUM!
