MUMBAI: The drama in Zee TV’s Vasudha is set to hit a new high as the story takes a gripping turn. In a bold twist, Karishma (Pratiksha Rai) secures bail and walks out of prison, only to head straight back to the Chauhan house. Fueled by suspicion that her cousin and partner-in-revenge, Megha (Mandeep Kaur), has developed feelings for Devansh (Abhishek Sharma), Karishma fears their carefully laid plan against the Chauhan family may be falling apart. But she isn’t returning quietly.
In a daring performance, Pratiksha slips into three dramatic disguises to confront Megha—first as a Banjaran in vibrant Rajasthani attire, then a moustached male servant, and finally Megha’s bua under a ghoonghat. Each look isn’t just part of the plot—it spotlights Pratiksha’s impressive range.
Behind the scenes, these transformations were no less intense. From prosthetics and moustaches to heavy jewellery and layered makeup, each look required hours of prep, especially the male avatar shot in the heat. Yet, with grace and grit, Pratiksha delivered a performance that was not only convincing but also layered, emotional, and unforgettable.
Pratiksha Rai said, “Playing Karishma has been very close to my heart. Over time, the audience has started reacting so strongly to her actions that I often get messages saying, ‘Why are you always troubling Vasudha?’ (laughs). That’s when I knew the character was truly making an impact. With this new track, I got the opportunity to take Karishma to another level of unpredictability and drama, donning three completely different disguises in just three days. Each look came with its own set of challenges—right from adapting to a new voice and body language to wearing heavy Rajasthani jewellery one day, and a realistic moustache and turban the next. The male disguise, especially, really pushed me to modulate my voice and change my physicality.”
She added, “It was physically and mentally exhausting, but I took it up as a challenge because these are the moments we live for as actors. What made it all worth it was the thrill of slipping into these characters and bringing Karishma’s desperation and determination alive on screen. It’s been one of the most challenging and exciting experiences of my journey in Vasudha—a track full of suspense, emotion, and transformation. I truly can’t wait for the audience to see the drama that’s about to unfold!”
While Pratiksha is thrilled about exploring these bold new shades of her character, the chaos in the Chauhan household is only just beginning. With Megha discovering that Vasudha secretly wears a mangalsutra in Devansh’s name, the emotional stakes are at an all-time high. Blackmail, betrayal, and long-buried secrets are about to surface. Will Vasudha (Priya Thakur) uncover Megha’s hidden agenda and her plot for revenge against the Chauhan family?
