Mumbai, July 28

Actress Ishita Dixit, who essays the character of Pari in superhit television show ‘Anupamaa’, has shared that she had no idea she would end up on the show when she met the show’s producer.

Her character in the show, who is known for her vibrant energy and strong moral compass, has quickly become a fan-favorite, and Ishita admits that stepping into her shoes was both exciting and deeply meaningful.

Talking about her part, she told IANS, “I adore Pari's positivity and strong moral compass, inspired by Anupamaa's guidance. Despite challenges, Pari remains confident and stands up for what's right. Her body positivity and resilience are traits I love portraying, and I’m grateful for the opportunity to bring her to life”.

Recalling the surprising moment when she signed the show, she said, “When I first met Rajan Shahi sir about the project, I actually didn’t know it was for ‘Anupamaa’. Signing on was already thrilling, but later finding out that it was for India’s most-watched show and that I would be working with Rajan sir himself felt surreal. The little fan girl in me couldn’t believe it”.

She also expressed her gratitude to Rajan for giving her a role that has not only challenged her as an actor but also allowed her to be part of a show that is so close to viewers’ hearts.

“This is a character who isn’t defined by circumstances. She doesn’t get bogged down by what others think. She’s confident in her own skin and has this innate ability to lift others up, which is incredibly inspiring”, she added.

With her heartfelt performance, Ishita Dixit has managed to carve a niche for herself in the hearts of Anupamaa fans. And just like Pari, she continues to win hearts with her authenticity and grace.

As a male viewer, I appreciate how Pari's character breaks stereotypes. Not every female character needs to be dramatic or crying all the time. More power to Ishita for portraying such a balanced role!

While I enjoy Ishita's performance, I feel the show sometimes makes Pari too perfect. Real people have flaws too! But kudos to her for bringing such energy to the screen every day.
