sonarika bhadoria aka parvati from devon ke dev mahadev recently visited lucknow last seen on the tv show ishq mein marjawan the actress says she has consciously taken a break from tv and is now focusing on films and ott sonarika made her film debut with saansein in 2016 which didnt do well at the box office and the actress seemed quite excited about her second film which was released recently in terms of films this is definitely a second inning for me because when saansein happened at the same time the announcement of demonetization broke out and our movie lost its significance in the public eye however this time there is so much optimism and excitement life has been good on both the fronts personal as well as professionalsonarika bhadoria bccl aditya yadavbcclsonarika bhadoria bccl aditya yadavbcclon being asked about whether she has taken a break from tv the actress said at the beginning of the career you dont get to make choices and have to be open to whatever comes your way though ive enjoyed every part of it mahadev brought me a divergence in my perspective with the realization of my preferences related to work what i realized was that neither do i enjoy watching the repetitive saasbahu sagas on tv nor would i like being a part of it as an actress and that would definitely not bring me joy after all every love story on television eventually comes down to the same saasbahu dramashe adds being able to play largerthanlife characters such as anarkali in dastaanemohabbat salim anarkali or being a part of a magnum opus show like prithvi vallabh itihaas bhi rahasya bhi is what i believe can make me shine bright and do wonders but only a handful of shows could be found that have a very nice slice of life and are thoroughly enjoyed to sum up ive consciously taken a break from tv and have not quit after all its my bread and butter and it is what thats got me here im looking forward to getting back at it if something really exciting shows up until then im completely focused on doing films and ive recently made my ott debut while speaking about her experience working on ott and how it can be distinguished from regular tv drama sonarika shared since i have done tv for so long and have inculcated a filter within me however this experience of acting in a web series allowed me to showcase my true self on camera in terms of costumes mannerisms and makeup everything was just so raw like we had no makeup look which really intrigued me i guess thats how both differ from one another and ott shows have really taken over the entertainment industry if i talk about myself my family members and other people around me its been so long since any of us have watched tv or discussed it especially in the pandemic era no one really
