Popular Bengali actress Rupanjana Mitra says in real life she is "completely opposite" to her role of Dali in the forthcoming TV show "Jai Kanhaiya Lal Ki".
"It's a challenging task to portray the role of Dali as she is stubborn, reckless, short-tempered and cynical. I will do full justice to my character. I have done a lot of hard work to get into the skin of the character as Dali is completely opposite to me," Rupanjana said in a statement.
"I don't have any characteristics of Dali in me. I hope that viewers will be able to connect with Dali and will recognise my hard work," she added.
Rupanjana, who is making her Hindi TV debut with "Jai Kanhaiya Lal Ki", earlier featured in Bengali shows like "Checkmate", "Premer Fande Kakatua" and "Anushochana".
"Jai Kanhaiya Lal Ki" will premiere on Star Bharat on January 1.
