Utkarsha Naik best remembered for her comic outing as Manorama in the original Iss Pyaar Ko Kya Naam Doon is all set to enter Bani – Ishq Da Kalma. She will be playing a social activist who runs a NGO. “Yes, and that’s how Bani who is going through a troubled marriage comes to me.
But as I try to solve her problem, I realise that it is inter-connected with my own daughter, and that creates a dilemma,” says Utkarsha who was last seen in Khamoshiyan. “I joined that serial when it was on the verge of going off air, but I had an interesting character with a Maharashtrian backdrop.
As for Bani.. I completely relate to the character. Since I am a physiotherapist in real life, my job entailed helping people. Also, unlike Manorama, who had grey shades laced with humour, this is a completely positive role. She is educated, well-read and non-traditional, just like the I am in real life,” says the actress, who started shooting for the serial yesterday.
