Rinku Dhawan: Being a part of the show, Udaariyaan will add a star to my career

Rinku Dhawan, who was last seen in Bigg Boss 17, has come on-board Ravie Dubey and Sargun Mehta’s Udaariyaan, which is produced under their banner, Dreamiyata Entertainment Private Limited. The show is taking a 15-year leap, and the new episodes will air on May 30. It will feature Avinesh Rekhi, Aditi Bhagat, and Shreya Jain in lead roles, and Rinku will be seen as Avinesh’s stepmother.

Speaking about the show and her character, she said, “It’s been a long-running and successful show, and being a part of it will add a star to my career for sure. I wanted to be a part of it, and I am so grateful that I got the opportunity. My role is that of a stepmother to the lead - Avinesh Rekhi. She’s a bit of a selfish woman who wants things only for herself and her kids, by manipulating, utilising and misusing another person through their emotions. My look is that of a Punjabi kudi.”

Before her stint in Bigg Boss, Rinku was seen on the TV show Titli, and is thankful to have work one after another in her hands. She is also grateful to producer couple Ravie and Sargun, and she said it is commendable what they have achieved at such a young age. “They are successful in their individual careers, and together they have also proved it. They have done wonders for themselves. That energy speaks to the work. I remember I had spoken to them earlier, also regarding work. So a few days ago, I sent them a thank-you message, and it was very lovely of them to revert with so much love and gratitude. It’s commendable, the love they spread,” she concluded.
