Meera Deosthale talks about her new show Vidya

Popular television actress Meera Deosthale, who was last seen in Colors’ long-running show Udaan, is quite excited about her new show Vidya on the same channel. The television series, which premiered on 9th September, stars the actress in the role of an English teacher who does not know the language.

Meera says that her role in Vidya is very different from what she has done so far and hence, she agreed to be a part of it. “The uniqueness about this character is her innocence, the simplicity. And the storyline of the show is the most attractive part of the show because nowadays there are very few shows which have a message, drama as well as entertainment,” she says.


When asked about her preparation for the role, the actress reveals, “Preparation for the role was as such that we used to do a lot of readings. I saw a few movies like Mother India (1957). Basically, the movies which have a girl or a lady with a lot of innocence. And as Vidya is a widow, so I just thought about how would a person like her be and feel.”

Vidya adds that since her last show, Udaan, was also set against the backdrop of Uttar Pradesh, she did not have to work extra on her lingo. “I really did not have to work on my lingo and dialogues because in my last show Udaan, I was a village girl and it was UP-based. So, I basically, had an idea of how a show with a UP backdrop is like.”

Produced by Mahesh Pandey, Vidya also stars well-known actor Namish Taneja in the lead role. The show airs on 7 PM Monday to Friday only on Colors.

Kim Kardashian didn’t know the Ambanis before saying yes to their ‘wild’ 50-pound wedding invite

Kim Kardashian and her sister Khloé Kardashian recently opened up about their whirlwind trip to India in July 2024. The two reality stars were among the global celebrities who attended the grand wedding of Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant. In the latest episode of The Kardashians, Kim admitted that she didn’t personally know the Ambani family before attending the wedding. In fact, the decision to go was made pretty casually.

She mentioned to Kim that the family was interested in inviting the Kardashian sisters to the event. “Lorraine said they’d love to have us there. We thought, why not? And we just went for it,” Kim explained.
