It ends with me falling victim to the 'demons', taking you through a gyrating journey that will leave you craving for more," she said.
"The character of Kavya is so captivating, as she herself is a hostage to these blue-collar gangsters," she added. "A journey of an independent and simple girl-next-door taking a 180-degree turn to transform into a strong woman outshining everyone, 'Tu Zakhm Hai' has been one of the most layered characters I've ever portrayed."

Talking about the title and the storyline, the actress, who became famous after 'Bigg Boss 15', said: "I think 'Zakhm' is the underlying cause of a lot of our actions as humans and the story spotlights how it can affect life, emotions, and relationships. The screenplay and the plot are par excellence, that's why I choose this project too as I believe In doing projects which excite me."
Donal elaborated on her role: "I've always wanted to be a psychologist as a kid and my background in the subject helped me get the nuances right. It's a very gratifying role, especially because I had to portray many emotions, there are 10 people in the show, and with all the 10 people, Kavya acts differently. Her equation with every character is totally different.
"So when I hear that the audience loved the many facets of the character, that is all that you want to hear. When you put your passion into a project, it hits the right chord."
