00:00Thank you so much. Same here.
00:03Nice to meet you.
00:04Because I have seen you in your first series.
00:09I have only seen you in TV.
00:11First time I have seen you.
00:12This is my favourite TV show.
00:15Teri Mere Sabne.
00:17Radha is very cute.
00:19Very cute.
00:20The characters are also very cute.
00:22The whole shot was very cute.
00:24The story was like this.
00:25Correct.
00:26And it was newly released in Mumbai in 2011.
00:29Oh.
00:31So we have to go till 11.
00:44By saying all this, you are taking me there.
00:52Done.
00:55Flower.
00:57The character name is Flower on Dangal TV's show Hudiya Rani.
01:02In such a short span of time, we had the most popular show on Dangal TV.
01:09We have been holding the second position consistently for the last 6 weeks.
01:14I hope this love and blessings of all of you will continue to be with us.
01:20There are a lot of needs.
01:22Thank you so much for all that you have given so far.
01:24So this Flower is all about the negative character.
01:27Initially, when the show started, the writer had written it with a comical flavour.
01:34Because while setting up the show, there were so many characters being introduced.
01:41And the show is for kids.
01:43You can understand from the title Hudiya Rani.
01:46So it is important to establish the kids first.
01:50Then there are so many characters that are going to trouble her.
01:55But there is one such character who is going to mess up everyone.
02:02So it takes time.
02:04I was told earlier when the show was approached,
02:06Madam, please be a little patient.
02:08Don't think that there is a delay.
02:11Don't worry so much.
02:16So yeah, I patiently held on to things and kept playing.
02:23Initially, I played comical.
02:25Then came Grace.
02:26And now Ravan Maharaj has come in the open.
02:29With all the heads out.
02:31Now he is not leaving Gudiya.
02:33Initially, he was indirectly troubling Gudiya.
02:36Now he was troubling mom, mother-in-law and Mahen indirectly.
02:41But now he is directly troubling mother-in-law, Rani and Mahen.
02:46On face.
02:47On the tip of his shoe.
02:49Now Ravan has come out.
02:50So yeah.
02:51So the name Flower is beautiful.
02:56But his character is blackish.
03:00Super blackish.
03:01Like Black Panther.
03:03As an actor, you can't bound yourself.
03:07That I will only do positive.
03:09Or I will only be a protagonist.
03:12Why not antagonist?
03:13Then what am I an artist?
03:15Then what is my education, dramatics?
03:17Then what have I learned?
03:19If you tie me in the same rope.
03:22Or I will tie myself.
03:23What will anyone tie me?
03:24If I tie myself.
03:26It is necessary to put limitations where I know.
03:29This is my boundary, boss.
03:30Neither can I go that way, nor can anyone come this way.
03:33Those are different things.
03:34But as an artist, how can I bound myself?
03:37Isn't it?
03:38Yes.
03:39There are many other things that will not sit in my meter.
03:42I will not do that.
03:43Playing plus and minus.
03:45That can't be justified.
03:50As an actor.
03:51And in negative too.
03:54Why do you think that when someone is playing a negative role.
03:57Then he will only beat.
03:59You know.
04:00Negativity will spread.
04:01It is not like that.
04:02According to the scene, according to the situation.
04:05There are emotions.
04:06In a scene, if his emotion is to cry or feel.
04:12Then he plays like that.
04:13If it is to play laughing, then he plays like that.
04:15But yes, the basic trait that has been shown of the antagonist.
04:18That has been shown to be negative.
04:20But what did Ravan do?
04:22Didn't he play laughing?
04:23Didn't he sing and dance?
04:24What didn't he do?
04:25He did everything.
04:26He won all the women.
04:27But his basic trait was negative.
04:29So yes.
04:30Here with the flower again.
04:33His basic trait is negative.
04:35He wants his right.
04:36And there is nothing behind his negativity.
04:40You will see that too.
04:41It is his emotional journey.
04:43There is a reason.
04:44For his being negative.
04:46A daughter-in-law of a big house.
04:48Who has no respect.
04:52Even though she has a son.
04:53She has ruined everything in the love of her daughter.
04:56You treat her son like garbage.
04:59Blah, blah, blah, blah.
05:00She has done everything to her younger son.
05:04So the suppression of the years.
05:09Suppression of emotions.
05:12For long pretty years.
05:15Now it is like a volcano.
05:17Because of which you can do anything.
05:20I have to do everything like Ravan.
05:23Like this.
05:26When this show started in 2011.
05:31At that time you were a lead character.
05:34Then back to back.
05:37You started doing shows and projects.
05:40But at that time.
05:42Like this time.
05:43He took the lights and the vibe.
05:46He polished himself so much.
05:49No, no, no.
05:50You are talking about social connectivity.
05:54Right.
05:55The thing about polishing.
05:57I have polished myself.
05:59There is no limitation of polishing.
06:02Like learning is a never ending process.
06:04Polishing is also a never ending process.
06:07You can upgrade yourself at any time.
06:10You can polish yourself at any time.
06:12You can learn something new.
06:13You can do a lot at any time.
06:15This.
06:17With time.
06:19Upgradation can be internal or external.
06:22Society wise.
06:24Today we are in the era of video calling.
06:27When we were in school.
06:30I come from a government family.
06:33Both my family.
06:35So from that landline era.
06:38Today I am in the video calling system.
06:40And I don't know where I will reach.
06:43That was not there at that time.
06:45Blackberry was my first phone.
06:48Today I am sitting on an iPhone.
06:51So simple.
06:53We keep on upgrading with the journey.
06:55And there is a plus and minus of everything.
06:57But it's just about you.
06:59My mindset.
07:01Definition of everything.
07:03My journey.
07:05How am I taking it.
07:07Everything has a plus and minus.
07:09Social media also has a plus and minus.
07:11What I am giving or taking depends on me.
07:15Everything is give and take.
07:18In many places.
07:20We hear a lot about actors.
07:22With paparazzi.
07:24They do this and that.
07:26It's again give and take.
07:28Whatever I gave.
07:30It came from the front.
07:32Everyone comes on my set.
07:34It will be a sweet thing.
07:36But I am saying as an example.
07:38Your basic nature.
07:40Wherever you go.
07:42On any global platform.
07:44It doesn't change.
07:46And because of that.
07:48Your aura and vibes.
07:50Connect with people.
07:52All the people who come on my set.
07:54Every day.
07:56Different people.
07:58But everyone has been watching for years.
08:00We have met in different places.
08:02Don't take it that way.
08:04I am giving an example.
08:06How we need to be.
08:08Or how the society needs to be.
08:10From here.
08:12Mindset wise.
08:14Today.
08:16I don't have to tell anyone.
08:18Everyone comes and greets me.
08:20Not because it's me.
08:22Because they get to know me.
08:24They respect me.
08:26Because they deserve it.
08:28Because anyone.
08:30Has come out of their house.
08:32In their journey.
08:34Not because it's me.
08:36I can say anything to anyone.
08:38I can disrespect anyone.
08:40It's simple.
08:42You can ask me anything.
08:44This is how it is.
08:46This barter system.
08:48We are changing with the times.
08:50We are not changing.
08:52We are going back to our circle.
08:54Life is a circle.
08:56You can call it fashion.
08:58You can call it spirituality.
09:02But yes.
09:04Apart from all this.
09:06The changes we need.
09:08The circle we need to go back to.
09:10The circle we need to go back to.
09:12We need to understand each other.
09:14Here.
09:16We don't understand each other.
09:18If I am sitting in a hierarchy.
09:20People will greet me.
09:22If something else happens.
09:24They won't greet me.
09:26This shouldn't be there.
09:28Respect should be there.
09:30Along with the person.
09:32Isn't it?
09:34So yes.
09:36We need to change.
09:38We need to change.
09:40The most important thing is.
09:42To understand each other.
