Rubina Dilaik to play Sita
Sunday, Jul 28, 2013, 12:41 IST | Agency: DNA








Rubina Dilaik


Looks like producer Nikhil Sinha's search for Sita has finally ended. Rubina Dilaik has been finalised to play the role of Sita in Devon Ka Dev Mahadev. The actress is excited to play a mythological role for the first time in her career. Says Rubina, "I had been approached for Parvati's role earlier. That was when Chhoti Bahu 2 had just ended. Also when Ramayan was being made for Zee, I was offered Sita's role and recently was approached for Draupadi's role in Mahabharat.

The fact that I was the first choice for all these roles made me ponder over it and I decided to do it." She adds that her beau, actor Avinash Sachdev tells her that she symbolises Indian beauty. "Whenever I would go home after a look test, he would appreciate me," she smiles. Rubina who was finalised for the role two days ago, has since been reading up on the pivotal role. "I have to get the pronunciation, diction and the notation right. There are a lot of Sanskrit words and I am taking my father's help. He is a Hindi professor and a writer," says Rubina who has started shooting for the serial. She recently quit Punar Vivaah – Ek Nayi Umeed as she felt her track – she played TV actress Divya Malhotra — was being sidelined.

She would have made a good Parvati I think she should have been the best replacement for Sona because Sonarika was tremendous in the role and had left a huge impact on us.
But maybe her fate was to play Sita and Pooja to come in as Parvati after Sonarika and incidentally both these girls where offered the role of Parvati but it had gone to Sonarika. Interesting.

It's all Fate Sandhya... We had to See Sona's Talent as Parvati...& it was like tailor made role for her...She Suited Best...Yes Rubina as Sita or Draupadi too would be good. But for Draupadi u need someone who's strong yet Soft Innocent look

Why did she decline Draupadi's role in the Mahabharata? It would have been more interesting than Sita's, particularly given that this serial, up to now, hasn't been Ramayan

Vrish, it may be that she wanted a short-term mythological role. Here Sita is not the permanent character. It is Mahadev. So even if Ramayan is shown for six months, at most she will have this role for six months. The Mahabharat on SP must be planned to run for at least 2 years or more. So she would be stuck with Draupadi's character for a longer time. I too would have preferred her to take Draupadi's role as that role has more variation.
