Sayantani Ghosh on entering Zee TV's 'Jagadhatri': 'The show has everything..']

Actress Sayantani Ghosh is all set to return to television with Rahul Kumar Tewary's new Zee TV show Jagadhatri. The actress will be seen playing the role of Maya Deshmukh, a powerful yet emotional businesswoman. Sayantani shared her excitement about being part of a project that combines meaningful storytelling with strong characters.

"Honestly, it feels great to be a part of a show like Jagadhatri," she says. "One of the biggest hits of my career has been with this channel, so it truly feels like a homecoming. Also, Rahul is a friend, and working with friends makes the journey smoother and more fun. Being part of a show that has already been successful in several languages is exciting. The Hindi version too has powerful storytelling, relevant themes, and strong female characters — everything that makes it worth being part of."

Maya Deshmukh is Strong Yet Deeply Emotional

Talking about her role, Sayantani describes Maya as a woman of depth and contrast. "Maya is a business tycoon — calm, confident, and composed on the outside, but very emotional within. She's also a mother, which adds another layer of warmth to her personality. She's one of the most multi-dimensional characters I've portrayed. Every woman carries both sides — nurturing and fierce. When needed, the protective side comes forward. That's the true essence of womanhood, and Jagadhatri celebrates that beautifully."

Drawn by Her Bengali Roots

The actress also shared how her connection to the Bengali original of Jagadhatri influenced her decision. "When I heard the Hindi version was based on a Bengali show, I immediately spoke to my mother. She's a huge fan of Bengali serials and told me the original was a massive hit. That made me even more eager to take on the role of Maya."

It's More Than Just Entertainment

For Sayantani, Jagadhatri is not just about drama; it's about inspiration. "If, along with entertaining people, we can inspire or influence them in some way, that's what makes a show truly special. This story has that potential — it reminds women of their strength. We all have a 'Jagadhatri' within us."

As the show prepares for its launch, Sayantani concludes, "Jagadhatri has everything a good show needs — drama, emotion, strength, and purpose. We just hope the audience connects with it and supports us through the journey."
