Amandeep Sidhu and Salman Shaikh to play the lead roles in ‘Choti Sarrdaarni’

It was kind of difficult to find that because I feel like in the last two years um you know because Meher has a character which is very mature um that I kind of had forgotten you know when you are playing the character every day and you are spending so much of time on set you tend to get who you really are and it was kind of a struggle um and it was also fun

Following the reports of Riya Sharma of Pinjara – Khubsurti Ka fame being finalised to play the grown-up Kashibai in Kashibai Bajirao Ballal, media reports suggest that the makers have signed the actor, who will play the male lead opposite her.

Mehndi Hai Rachne Waali was more about going out of your comfort zone, staying away from the family as that was my first show. Now, that I am doing Chhoti Sarrdaarni, I feel what I have learnt there about technicalities, and all help me here.

I had watched the episodes and while watching them I was so scared looking at the team and assumed that it would be difficult for me. When I met them, I felt so comfortable, the whole team is like family and when I saw them there it felt like what we see onscreen, their offscreen bond is the same. Now, I look forward to meeting them and going on a shoot.

Earlier, I never did TV too much but I have nothing against it. Whenever a good project was handed to me on TV, I grabbed it. So the journey has truly been an incredible one. Being a complete outsider in the industry, all my loved ones are happy with how I’ve done here so far and I hope to do better.

We are good friends in real life also. We eat food together, we do a lot of Masti on sets together with other cast members, pull each other's legs and have a lot of fun. We are very comfortable being around each other without any pretence. And that is exactly what comes across on screen.

It’s an extremely different and happy show with zero negativity involved. It can make you smile even on your saddest days with the slightest punch of laughter and banter that happens around in the family. It strikes important conversations with regards to family and family values and ethics.

Nimrit Ahluwalia plays the role of Seher in the show. Looks like apart from acing superb acting skills she is the queen of expression.

Wearing a bald cap, doing prosthetics on the face and body, getting into a bodysuit, changing your body language with all the alien things on you, all these things require immense patience as a person. As an actor, this takes your craft to a different level.
