Actress Sumona Chakravarti, best known for her roles in "Bade Achche Lagte Hain" and "Comedy Nights With Kapil", has donned the look of a superstar for an episode of "Yeh Hai Aashiqui".

Channel bindass has launched a special four-week mini-series dealing with relationship issues. Sumona will featuring in its third episode, which will be aired Sunday.

The talented actress will be seen in a different avatar of a rockstar, where she is a member of a rock band in her college and plays guitar too.

Sumona says she was attracted to the concept of "Yeh Hai Aashiqui" the very first time that she saw it.

"I remember, it was an amazing love story which was beautifully shot, just like a tele-film, unlike the usual television shows. Every story on 'Yeh Hai Aashiqui' has been unique and easily relatable to today's youth. So, when this opportunity knocked at my door, I could not turn it down, especially due to the characterisation, with which I fell in love instantly," she said in a statement.

The story revolves around the lives of Tejaswini and Jigar. While Tejaswini is a smart, educated and modern small-town girl who is a part of rock band in her college, Jigar has an extremely conservative approach towards things and is taking every step to stop western music and culture take over his college.

What will be the outcome when these conflicting personalities clash -- that forms the rest of the story.
