A scene from a daily soap has been going viral and it's all things bizarre.
There's no doubt that Indian creators resort to various creative processes while producing a series but a clip from a now-ended serial is doing on the internet and it will leave you splits. Saubhagyavati Bhava?
In the clip, Karanvir's character Viraj seems to have just gotten married to Sriti's Jhanvi. While Jhanvi looks awkward standing in front of Viraj in her wedding attire, a cockroach crawls on her arm. Scared, Jhanvi panics and jumps throwing the cockroach on the floor. Showing how brave he is, Viraj picks it up and while trying to release it somewhere, he dips it into a glass of milk that is kept in his room as part of the tradition. After he dunks the insect in the milk, though Jhanvi tried to stop him, he gulps it down in one breath.
Sharing the scene on Twitter, the netizen, who goes by the name kendallsiimpp, wrote, "Ye kya dekh liya maine". Many netizens reacted to the video and couldn't believe what happened in the clip. Definitely one of the most progressive things to have happened to TV. And Mohit Raina is brilliant. I feel like I would want to touch his feet if I see him. He is Mahadev! Popular opinion is that these roles carry the risk of being slotted….
SJ: I have never said no to anything laughs. I doubt if any actor can tell you for definite that this is the role they would or would not do. This new era of mythology on TV, thank you Mahadev! The presentation is very progressive with a lot of scope for variety. For example, Mahadev I can only exemplify that as I follow it very religiously has so many shades. He has so many layers.
So that definitely gives me a confidence that getting typecast or slotted is not much of a concern anymore. You played a victim of cruel domestic abuse. It is a very sensitive issue. Did it affect you at a personal level? SJ: It did affect me. Before playing this role, when I heard such stories , I did feel bad but failed to really connect. But when I started playing Jahnvee, the full impact of this social evil called domestic violence hit me.
The worst part about this particular issue is when people tend to dismiss it as a personal problem. Domestic violence is a social issue and it should be dealt with socially. When you are disrespected physically and emotionally at your own home, it is bound to kill you from within. Some were of the view that SB was thriving on sadism and voyeurism.. SJ: Our effort was never to advertise violence but we had to show a certain amount of it to keep it authentic..
The audience had to feel a little of the horror to really appreciate the moment when Sia finally takes a stand and starts the journey towards her recovery. But that was not supposed to be the USP of the show. That concept is flawed: Why do families think their responsibility as parents are done and over with as soon as they get their daughters married?
Women get to play richer roles than men as most stories are centered around them? Or that has changed too? SJ: Well, if that is the case, I am not complaining laughs. No, I think the present scenario works on a fifty- fifty balance. In fact It is more of Jagyas story than mine. Madhubala is a series which revolves as much around R. Quobool Hai is another show which gives both the protagonists same weightage. The characters you have played are all very different from each other.
What kind of a relationship do you share with them? Do you carry them back home with you? SJ: I think the relationship between an actor and the character is symbiotic. These characters grow as much on you, as much you grow while playing them. It is almost an organic process.
I am not really a method actor and I do think of my characters even when I am not working, but most of the time the thought process is objective. But sometimes for a particular character, to try to make it as authentic as possible I try living at home. It changes according to circumstances. I started taking my work more seriously and made it a point to read more, specially about the craft of story telling , and watch more films.
My director Siddharth Sen Gupta and Arvind Babbal, my director in Jiya Jale , are the two people who are mainly behind me being the person I am today, professionally and artistically. That is another one of your roles which surprises me by its authenticity. Did you do a lot of research or prepare differently?
I imagine playing blind must not be easy! SJ: Thank you but till date, I feel dissatisfied with myself for not doing that better. It is very difficult to look through things, as you have to keep your eyes open and not see things!
I went to a blind school in Worli but that ended up making me feel more guilty. But it was a brilliantly written show and one of the most special roles of my life after Sudha. And did you have to face any particular challenge for this one? SJ: I like the fact that she is a very strong woman. As for challenges, it is the first time that I am playing a rural woman.
It is also the first time that I am playing a mother, so that is a new emotion to portray. It has grown on me with time : It is a very special aspect of Ganga which she has transferred to me: She keeps her child above everything. The only goal of her life is to give Manu a better life. This aspect of selfless love, which is also the source of all her strength, is what makes Ganga very special to me and makes her a very fulfilling character to play.
What if a third role comes along with a similar background? SJ: Well, I would ideally want to do something different but again a lot depends on the way the role is written. For example Ganga is fundamentally different from Siya, even though they are both characters coping with abuse. So for me, it is more about the way a character is written. SJ: She is watching other people act.
I watch a lot of Indian television and I love movies. I also read when I am free and not to forget I sleep! SJ: That is a very tough question.
