Serial:Jodha Akbar on Zee TV Before she became Akbar's Jodha, Paridhi Sharma was seen in Ruk Jaana Nahi. In fact, she even vamped it up in a show called Tere Mere Sapne, which disappeared without a whimper. But that's not the case with her latest avatar as Jodha, she's loved for it. To be able to essay a legendary character comes with its fair share of challenges, but Sharma has a different take to that. "Jodha, the character that I play in Jodha Akbar, is a very strong woman and has no qualms about voicing her opinions. The viewers did take some time to understand the character, but gradually began to understand her views, which I feel is the biggest achievement as an actor. In today'stimes, all one needs to do is play the character as real as possible, and connect with the audiences," she says.
