"my own sense of morality has resisted - Gouri Agarwal"

Mumbai, April 14

Actress Gouri Agarwal, who is seen as Kirti on the show "Jaane Anjaane Hum Mile," decided to reflect on the massive transformation her character has been undergoing on the show.

What initially began as a positive role has gradually shifted to grey and has now turned into a completely dark character.

Gouri revealed how this drastic character transformation has impacted her personally. She shared that she constantly has to remind herself that all of Kirti's actions are purely driven by the character's mindset, even though justifying them emotionally has been extremely challenging for her.

Gouri shared that the character has been both physically and emotionally demanding for her.

Recalling some of the most challenging scenes, Gouri said, "There have been sequences where, honestly, my own sense of morality has resisted, and I found it difficult to perform those scenes wholeheartedly because of the emotional weight they carried. However, as an actor, I had to constantly remind myself that I am serving the character's journey. Such scenes have been both emotionally and physically demanding, as I have to ensure, as an actor, that the scenes look convincing without overstepping any boundaries."

Gouri added that ever since Kirti's character entered a negative space, it has been a continuous process for her to align herself with the character's mindset.

"The extent she goes to, whether it is causing harm to Reet and Raghav, displaying aggression, or pushing herself to extremes, is quite intense. Understanding and justifying those actions on an emotional level has been extremely challenging," she stated.

The primary cast of Zee TV's "Jaane Anjaane Hum Mile" further stars Bharat Ahlawwat, who is seen as Raghav on the show and Aayushi Khurrana, who plays Reet.

"Jaane Anjaane Hum Mile" airs only on Zee TV at 10:30 pm!

Honestly, Kirti's character has become unbearable to watch. The show was good when it was about the love story, now it's just her scheming 24/7. I get that actors have to play their part, but the writers have taken it too far. Time for a redemption arc maybe?

Respect to Gouri for her dedication. Playing a negative character, especially in a prime-time family show, must be tough. People start hating the actor along with the character. My mother literally curses the TV when Kirti comes on screen! 😅 But that means she's doing a great job.

As someone who studied theatre, I really appreciate her process. That conflict between the actor's personal morality and the character's actions is the core of challenging roles. It shows she's not just reciting lines, she's living the part. More power to her!

The show's timing is so late! 10:30 PM means my kids are asleep, but still, such intense negativity before bedtime? Maybe the channel should reconsider. That said, Gouri is a fantastic actress and is carrying the show on her shoulders right now.

I feel for her. Indian TV audiences are quick to judge. Playing a vamp means you'll get typecast for years. Look at what happened to other actresses who played iconic negative roles. I hope Gouri gets recognition for her craft and not just hate for her character.
