Joyti takes inspiration from Deepika Padukone's Leela
Actress Jyoti Sharma has taken cue from Deepika Padukone's character Leela from her super hit film "Goliyon Ki Raasleela Ram-Leela" for an upcoming track of her TV show "Aisi Deewangi".
Jyoti is seen as Tejaswani Rathore in the Zee TV show.
"I was really inspired by Deepika Padukone's role in 'Goliyon Ki Rasleela...'. I watched the movie a couple of times to observe her characteristics and understand this role. I hope I do justice to Tejaswini's new role as Dharam Singh's heir in 'Aisi Deewangi' and I hope that the audience appreciates this side of me," Jyoti said in a statement.
The twist in the story comes when Dharam Singh Rathore's lawyer reveals that the deceased head of the Rathore family has named Tejaswani (Jyoti) as the heir to the family's wealth and business.
Talking about the twist, Jyoti said: "Honestly, Tejaswini does not want to take charge of all the money and property but she has no choice. It was a little difficult to adjust to this aspect of Tejaswini's character."
