Kaushik, 30, will play the titular character of Maina, who is a young, modern and free spirited girl on Sab TV's new show.

"Maina's character is wild and I believe its just an extension of me. Maina is forever happy, confident, outgoing and so much fun. I am having a blast shooting for it because it's a very earthy realistic character who is extremely funny at the same time," Kaushik said in a statement.

The show is set in a small town in UP and Kaushik has learnt the dialect to make her character look original.

"It's not the witty lines that make me comical, it's my character in itself that is very funny. I had to work on my accent and learn the local dialect and had to be trained in the ways of life there to make my character authentic.

 

"The show is based on the lives of people in UP and that's a completely different life from what we live here in Mumbai," she added.
