Kaveri
Priyam
aka
Kuhu
of
Star
Plus
show
Yeh
Rishtey
Hain
Pyaar
Ke,
is
a
doctor
in
the
new
SAB
TV
youth
show
Ziddi
Dil
Maane
Na.
The
actress
spoke
to
Filmibeat
about
her
new
show.
“Our
setting
is
an
army
academy
with
six
principal
characters,
three
army
officers
and
three
civilians,
who
want
to
enlist
in
the
defence
forces
and
serve
the
nation.
I
play
a
sweet,
emotional
doctor,
Monami,
who
has
a
past.
My
equation
is
with
the
stern
special
agent
Karan
Shergil
(Shaleen
Malhotra)
who
brooks
no
mercy
and
is
a
stickler
for
rules.
How
we
officers
and
cadets
get
along
during
the
training
and
eventually
fall
in
love
is
the
gist
of
our
show,” she
said.
Kunal
Karan
Kapoor
and
Simple
Kaul
complete
the
central
casting
of
the
show.
“Being
an
army
adventure,
I,
too,
will
get
the
opportunity
to
do
many
stunts!
So
far,
it
has
not
been
much,
but
I
am
looking
forward
to
the
real
action
when
the
show
opens
up,” added
the
26-year-old
Jharkhand
lass.
How
is
it
playing
a
medical
professional?
“I
have
to
ensure
that
I
maintain
the
dignity
of
the
white
coat
and
not
goof
up
with
the
medical
terminologies
and
equipment.”

Character
Of

(Exclusive)
What
made
you
say
this
yes
to
this
Sunshine
Productions
show?
“Well,
as
mentioned,
you
usually
don’t
get
to
act
in
an
army
backdrop
show
in
Indian
television.
You
are
either
a
college
kid
or
a
bahu.
My
character
here
is
poles
apart
from
what
I
have
done
in
Yeh
Rishtey
(Kuhu
was
very
straightforward
and
bold
while
Monami
is
very
submissive,
to
begin
with),
and
my
out
and
out
negative
Shakti
avatar.
For
the
first
time,
I
am
playing
a
positive
gal;
even
Kuhu
had
grey
shades,” replied
Kaveri.
Kaveri
had
also
played
the
evil
Madhumakhi
in
Naagin
2.
“I
used
this
Balaji
fantasy
as
a
learning
curve,
sharing
screen
space
with
biggies
like
Adaa
Khan,
Ashka
Goradia,
Mouni
Roy,
etc.,” she
said.
She
also
did
a
bold
romantic
film
called
Tishagni
in
2018.
But
she
“prefers
to
talk
about
my
current
show
rather
than
dwell
on
something
I
did
a
long
time
ago”.
When
asked
as
to
what
went
wrong
with
Yeh
Rishtey
Hain
Pyaar
Ke,
which
shut
shop
in
2020,
Kaveri
said,
“While
I
can’t
comment
on
the
creative
aspects,
I
do
feel
that
the
time
slot
during
the
lockdown
did
us
in.”
