Mumbai: TV actress Kavita Kaushik, best known as the strict yet kind-hearted police officer Chandramukhi Chautala of ‘F.I.R.’, is geared up to show her romantic side in new show ‘Tota Weds Maina’. She says she likes to surprise audiences with every role.
"I have been doing `F.I.R.` the past seven years. As an actor, you want to do different roles. You have some responsibility towards your audience. I always get a kick out of surprising my audience with my performance and playing a different role," Kavita said. "This role Maina is a role like that. I hope it is not early for me to say that it is as amazing and brilliant for an actor to play as Chandramukhi," she added. Pointing out the difference between the two shows, she said: "`F.I.R.` was an out and out comedy which was sometimes over the top but this is more real. This is different. The audience will feel very differently. You will see me with real emotions." Kavita feels the stories, content and treatment on the Indian small screen have hardly undergone any upgradation over the years. "Many shows hold no social obligation to society and don`t care about the message they are giving out to the youngsters and youth. On lots of shows, there is no scope of characterisation and performance. Earlier, we used to have these really good shows. Nowadays, you have reality shows which are all scripted drama and nonsense... where is the kind of television upgradation which we are looking at?" she said. With two shows in her kitty for now, Kavita is not looking for anything else. "I have just signed `Tota Weds Maina` and `F.I.R.` is also there. So on TV, I don`t have time for anything else. But I am open for advertisements," she said. IANS
