Zee TV’s popular show, Kumkum Bhagya has remained an audience favorite ever since it was aired for the first time. The pivotal characters of the show like Abhi (Shabbir Ahluwalia), Pragya (Sriti Jha), Rhea (Pooja Banerjee), Aaliya (Reyhnaa Pandit), Tanu (Leena Jumani), Ranbir (Krishna Kaul) and Prachi (Mugdha Chapekar) are adored by the audience and enjoys a massive fan following.
In a recent interview with BT, Reyhnaa Pandit who essays the role of Aaliya talks about her soul searching during the pandemic and shared, “The pandemic has taught me a lot of things. I have learned that one does need financial stability to survive such times. To be honest, I felt sad seeing so much pain and agony because people lost jobs and they had no way to get out of these testing times. As an artist, I understand the struggles our society is facing right now and how difficult it can be for everyone. Talking about insecurity, I guess everyone faces it. I wouldn’t say I’m not insecure, I do get worried about my work, my life, and the future I behold. I got insecure during the pandemic too”.
She added, “I think about everything happening in my life, but I make myself understand how to face my fears too. I take life as it comes, and I am pretty comfortable with my life now. I’m not scared of losing anything. I live by the philosophy that we were all brought to this world empty-handed by God and he has given us a purpose in life that we have to fulfill. In the path of life, we have to follow our hearts and choose our purpose in life. There is no such thing as right or wrong, whatever serves you right at the moment you should do that. That’s my new life mantra and I guess everyone should follow it.”
Coming back to the show, Aaliya is plotting something evil to make Pragya suffer. What is she planning and will she be able to create differences between Abhi and Pragya? Only time will tell.
