What intrigued you towards the show? Share something about your character. What
are you enjoying the most about it?
When
the story was narrated to me, the one thought that came to my mind was, that
this show is different. The storyline is very refreshing and would uplift your
mood. Baby Maurya is a woman of substance. She was a very pampered wife but she
took the role of the head of the family when her husband passed away. She is a
very balanced woman. She very strongly and independently took care of her
children and now her beloved grandkid Manu. The Daadi’s role is a very
fulfilling character, she brings the family together.

Share something about your character. What are you enjoying the most about it?
My
character on the show has had a challenging life. However, I can very proudly
tell that Baby Maurya is the Boss Dadi and is here to break every stereotype
that’s attached to her age. She is a woman of substance and celebrates every
moment. She is optimistic and firmly believes - what you sow is what you reap.
She is a modern grandma and way ahead of her time. Baby Maurya is truly
bindass. Her character adds great value to the show as she is equally fun and
admirable to everyone. And who wouldn't want to have a Dadi like our Baby
Maurya?”

How is your character different from the other shows on-air now? How much do
you relate to your character?
My
character is not your typical daadi. She is very modern, with her thoughts and
actions. She is a very ‘in’ kind of daadi. She speaks in English comfortably
and she believes in the philosophy of “As you sow, so you reap”- do good and
good will happen to you. So yeah, she is a very positive person. She is also
very self-aware, as she remembers what the economy was back in the time when
she got married vs the current economy. I am looking forward to playing her and
I am trying to get into her character right away.

How are you preparing for your role?
As
an actor, I am very restless, the moment I decided on playing Baby Maurya, I
started thinking about her traits, her accent, her children, and grandchildren.
I started to understand and tried incorporating the Lucknow accent to my
speech. I started thinking what would Baby Maurya do? And tried to add her
mannerisms to my daily life so that my onscreen presence is as real as
possible. I enjoy my work so much. I always try to bring a certain newness to
all the characters I play.

What do you think the audience will take away from SAB Satrangi?
The
audience will identify with the characters. The name “Satrangi” has been
righteously selected because even as human beings, whether a person is nice or
otherwise, we are all very different from each other. The show has very real
characters. The Daadi’s role is a very fulfilling character, she brings the
family together. I believe the character will be a huge hit because people will
resonate with her. Baby radiates a very positive attitude, which is very
important.

In your real life, how positive are you as a person?
I
am a very positive person. I just get bored easily and my soul is very
restless. I try to enjoy everything – from having a nice cup of tea, to
watching the sunrise to hearing the birds chirping. I resonate a lot with Baby
Maurya’s character, and I think I will have the same reaction to situations as
Baby Maurya. I believe women can do everything, women are nurturers, they have
that certain softness in them which is very important. I am truly excited to
play this role.
