Actor Juhi Aslam is currently seen in Badho Bahu produced by Dipti Kalwani (Sunny Side Up) and Sushant Kumar and Teenna Swayyam’s (Humtum Telefilms).
She said:
“I loved the positivity on the set. Everyone is very helpful. It is taking me some time to perfect the Haryanvi accent. The role is something really different and I am so glad have got the chance to play this role. I am, or course, very nervous about how my role will be accepted.”
She is playing the role of Chhoto Bua. Talking about her character, she says:
“It is a very dominating character. She is here to get people back on track and bring a positive change in Badho’s life. It is a very strong and positive role.”
Although the name of a character is a play on her height, Juhi doesn’t mind.
She added:
“Chhoto will be a positive contrast to Badho and will change her. She is short yet passionate and glamorous and that is what she will teach Badho.”
The actor was seen in a cameo in Siya Ke Ram last. Talking about the other work she’s done, she says:
“I had done a cameo in Siya Ke Ram. I also did Adhuri Humari Kahani. I am also doing Is Pyaar Ko Kya Naam doon, where I am actor Barun Sobti’s assistant.”
Meanwhile Dipti Kalwani, the producer of Badho Bahu, is happy to have Juhi on board.
She added:
“Chhoto Bua is coming in the show. She will be the support system of Badho. The two will get along like a house on fire. Along with her, four brother-in-laws will also enter the show. Chhoto is being played by Juhi. Her character is the first woman to have had a court marriage in Haryana.”
Talking about the thought process behind Juhi’s character, Dipti says that it was to spread a wider message.
She said:
“The thought behind doing was to spread the message that every woman, despite the shape and size, is perfect in her own way. I wanted to get a small girl, who is very confident about her body, and has a husband who completely adores her. I wanted to show that physical appearances don’t matter, only a heart and soul do.”
