After opting out of television and dabbling in Bollywood for a while, actress Shweta Gulati is now all charged up to make a comeback in a serial titled Gili Gili Gappa. For the first time in her career, Shweta will be seen in the role of an angel. “It feels good to be back on television after a long gap. I was offered a variety of roles from many
producers and directors, but nothing seemed exciting enough to do. But that didn’t matter much to me, I was busy travelling and enjoying life. It was a fun break,” says the actress.
Shweta says that it was the idea behind the concept that made her take up the role. “I thought it was a great concept, where I’d be playing a woman, who returns as an angel after her death to help her children,” she says. The actress was put on a hectic schedule where she had to shoot for months together, besides also juggling her slots for yet another forthcoming serial. “We’re still working on it and I’m not allowed to talk about it,” she says, adding, “I also keep getting offers for reality shows, but I think I’m not suited for them.”
Shweta needed to get into a different look for her role in Gili Gili Gappa. “I had to wear a small mukut (crown) and dress up in saris. I personally didn’t like to wear them earlier, but now I’ve become comfortable in them,” she adds.
