Karishma Sawant on how her role will change post the leap in ‘Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai’
Karishma Sawant is currently essaying the role as Arohi in ‘Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai’ is super excited about the changes in her role post the leap in the show. The leap in the show has brought about a lot of changes and drama to the narrative.
The actress talked about it during a recent interview and shared, “Before and after the leap, Arohi is a different person altogether. Earlier, she used to get her things done the way she wanted by being stubborn and throwing things and shouting. Now, she has a calmer way of putting her things out to others and conveying whatever she wants to. So that has been the difference.”
Talking about the growth in Arohi’s character and the challenges she faced, Karishma said, “Challenges are every day and every second with you. The same happens in reel life. Earlier, at every debate, Arohi used to just put her point and say I’m right and I know what I’m saying. But after the leap, I confronted Kairav (played by Abeer Singh) by taking a stand for Abhimanyu (played by Harshad Chopda) in a much calmer way by making him understand what he is saying and I know where he comes from.”
“I just did not say my points and walked off. I had a conversation with Kairav, which Arohi never did before. That was a little different and changed about her.”
Describing her relationship with Pranali Rathod, she said, “We are constantly in touch with each other. Even when we are not doing scenes together, we share jokes and memes on Instagram. We greet each other without fail. Whenever we have scenes together we always make sure that there’s complete silence when we are working. So we are always there to support each other, lift each other up, be it at work or off-screen.”
When asked if there is anything she wishes people knew about her in reel and real life, she replied, “I do not open up with everyone but when I do, I’m completely myself and I don’t have any regrets about it. I think both sides of me are important and if somebody knows only a little about me that’s fine, if they know a lot about me that is also fine. I do not wish for anything. For some people, I’m a mystery in a good way but for some, I’m an open book.”
