Every actor enjoys tackling diverse roles, but some roles just feel like a perfect fit. Actress Pranoti Pradhan, who stars as Madhumita in Ishq Jabariya, recently shared which roles she loves most and why they resonate with her.
In a recent interview, Pranoti Pradhan expressed her preference for comedy and negative characters in daily soaps. “Given that we stay in character for 10-12 hours, it’s crucial to enjoy what we do,” she said. “Comedy roles start my day with a smile, while negative characters, like Madhumita in Sun Neo’s Ishq Jabariya, set a powerful tone for the hours ahead.”
She elaborated on her passion for these roles, stating, “I think I’m drawn to these characters because they offer such a range of emotions and challenges. Comedy roles let me explore my lighter, funnier side, and as an artist, it is rewarding to make people laugh. On the other hand, negative roles like Madhumita are intense and powerful, allowing me to delve deep into complex emotions and motives. Both types of roles keep me engaged and excited about my work, making every day on set an adventure.”
Pranoti also shared insights into how these roles align with her personality. “Comedy suits me because I have a natural sense of humour, while negative roles align well with my more intense side. Positive roles are great and get a lot of love from the audience—I’ve even received offers for some. But, honestly, my personality fits better with negative roles,” she revealed.
Ishq Jabariya features an ensemble cast, including Kamya Panjabi, Siddhi Sharma, and Lakshay Khurana in pivotal roles. Pranoti Pradhan plays Madhumita, Gulki’s stepmother, who tries to control her and hinder her dreams. The show is a heartwarming love story about Gulki (Siddhi Sharma), a cheerful young woman who aspires to become an air hostess but encounters unexpected challenges along the way.
