She has already enthralled Marathi filmgoers with her work in the past. Now Gauri Nigudkar hopes to recreate the same magic with her very first serial — Star One's Paraya Dhan.

"I have done a Marathi film Uttarayan which is a National Award winner, some one and a half years back. I have done two or-three commercials in the past, but wasn't doing any major work. Then, I got a call from the production house Sphere Origin. I gave an audition and got selected for Paraya Dhan," informs the young actress.

Undoubtedly debuting with a Star One serial is an achievement in itself. And Gauri seems very enthused by her role and her look in the show. "I play Krishna, the eldest daughter in a family of six daughters and one brother. It's a huge family. In many ways her character is very much like Lord Krishna himself. She is a little wild, rational, yet quite vulnerable. The kid in her is still alive. It's basically a very simple character. Nothing is loud about her. So her makeup and outfits are subtle. I guess people will be able to relate with her. I hope they will like and accept the character."

Ask her and she tells you that this is not just 'another role'. It has a far deeper meaning for her. "Oh, yes! It's also something to which I am emotionally attached. I am a great devotee of Lord Krishna. So playing this role is just out of the world," she says excitedly.

It's a big unit and Gauri seems to be enjoying this stint to the fullest. "The first schedule was in Jodhpur and it was great fun. All six girls and the boy are of the same age. So we had loads of fun. We shopped together, ate together, made merry and enjoyed," she says.

Expectations are sky-high since the producers of Paraya Dhan were also behind the super-successful Saat Phere on Zee. "The producer Sanjay Wadhwa is excellent. It's a very prestigious project. The production value, the locations and the equipments are great. So I can only work and hope for the best," she adds.

But the show has had its share of controversies as well — the theme of Paraya Dhan being the reason. The newly launched Betiyann on Zee has a similar theme. There might be a lot of competition to contend with once the show goes on air. "I don't have to say anything at all. I am here to do my job and give it my best shot. I have no idea about what's happening around and the competition. I don't worry about these things. Frankly speaking, I do not care. I am doing my work and that's about it," she says confidently.

For Gauri it's only Paraya Dhan that matters for now. "Right now, it's just this show which I am concentrating on. I guess this will give me a name. I have been more into studies. I will think about other things at a much later stage.''
