Manini De Mishra needs no introduction for the niche she has carved for herself on small screen over all these years.

This talented actress is all set to do her first mythological show now. The actress who's famous for comic roles always, for the first time will be seen in a different Avatar.

She will be seen playing a character called Vijaya who is elder sister of Sati. Her character will be that of a jealous person and with her father Daksh, she will create trouble for Sati. Character has many grey shades. Vijaya pretends to be nice in front of everyone but she can not see Sati happy. Sati being Daksh's favorite daughter, Vijaya has always been envied of Sati.

Vijaya has come at the time when entire family is against Daksh. Sati has married to Mahadev in her Swayamwar. Vijaya will be helping Daksh in spoiling Sati's married life. She will sport a glamorous look with jewellery and all. Manini confirms," I am playing Vijaya in Mahadev. I a m doing mythological show for the first time. Mahadev is a popular show. Nikhil Sinha has made a fantastic show and the production values are talked about. The role was tempting enough for me to say yes. I am doing films as well but, can't disclose details as of now."
