Veteran actress Guddi Maruti is all set to make a much-awaited return to the small screen with the television show “Udne Ki Aasha.”
In a recent interview with IANS, she shared the reasons behind her comeback, expressing her excitement to reconnect with her audience and explore a fresh, engaging role after a long hiatus. Opening up about joining the show, Guddi shared, “I`m excited to be a part of Udne Ki Aasha because my role is very interesting. It has many shades-a little comedy and a little grey – which makes it fascinating to perform.”
Talking about her character, the `Dulhe Raja` actress teased that her entry will stir things up for the lead protagonist Sailee, played by Neha Harsora. “My role has many layers, and I`m going to make Sailee`s life quite miserable,” she laughs. The show is already doing very well-touch wood and I`ll try my best to add my bit to it. Of course, it all depends on the writing and creative direction, but I hope a bit of comedy gets added to my grey shade. That would make it even more fun.”
She added, “This isn`t a typical `90s comic role. It`s very different – she`s ambitious, tough, not exactly mean but a strong woman with shades of grey. I hope the audience accepts me as this slightly kameeni types of character.”
Even Guddi Maruti also believes that television now offers her a platform to challenge and break traditional stereotypes. Expressing the same, she mentioned, “Television has really given a new scope to actors like me. Earlier, I was mostly doing comedy and got typecast as the `fat funny girl”. But now, TV is letting me explore roles that are layered negative roles with a hint of humor – and that`s very exciting.”
Guddi Maruti is widely known for her comic brilliance in films like “Dulhe Raja,” Biwi No.1,” “Shola Aur Shabnam,” and “Chhote Sarkar” to name a few.
