Madhura Naik to enter Shakuntala..

Madhura Naik who has been typecast for her negative roles whether it was in Bidaai, Kayamath or Kis Desh, will now be seen in a new avtar in Star One's eternal love story, Shakuntala.

Playing a period drama for the first time, Madhura feels this is a challenge which will give her the much-needed image makeover in television. "I am playing the role of Princess Gauri, sister of Dushyant in the show. This is a very different role when compared to the roles I have played so far; and above all it is a positive and a long-running one".

"This is also the first time I am part of a period drama, and am upbeat about this. The look given to me is totally different, and I look the typical Princess here", adds the actress.

Madhura will enter the show on Tuesday, February 24th…
