I used to watch Kinshuk's show Shaka Laka Boom Boom: Shivya Pathania

Television's one of the most loved actress Shivya Pathania, who rose to fame as Arzoo from Sony TV's Humsafars, is now back with another daily soap.

After the romantic tale, the actress is now going to be seen in a big fat family drama 'Ek Rishta Saajhedari Ka' on Sony TV. In a candid chat with Shivya, we learned more about her excitement for her new show and the shooting so far.

Shivya told us, "I am very much excited to be a part of the show because it's a Kavita Barjatya's production and they are a brand in themselves. Working with them is one of the biggest achievements of my life. The environment and the people here is all so positive. It's very important to have a good cast. Moreover, I am doing something different from what I have done before in Humsafars. It's a totally different character which I am playing in the show. It's a good story and I can totally connect to it. 

She also shared with us about her shooting experiences in Jaisalmer. She added, "It was too hot in Jaisalmer but we didn't feel the heat that much because we knew that we are shooting for something big. We were so excited and we were really well taken care of by the production. It was once in a lifetime experience. I am from Shimla and the climate was totally opposite in Jaisalmer."

We also asked Shivya about her shooting experience with her co-star Kinshuk Vaidya. She told us, "Working with Kinshuk is a good experience. I told him that I used to watch his show Shaka Laka Boom Boom when I was in school. We have a friendly bond off-screen with each other and we enjoy a lot. He is an amazing actor."

Happy with the response Shivya is getting from the audience, she told us, "The response has been good and people are loving it. The show is modern with family values. I am pretty much excited and positive about the show and feeling happy with the positive reviews."

Good luck Shivya!
