"Fortunately, I have always played younger than what I am. To play an older woman, till the look is not affected, it is never a problem for me. To play a matured character, it's different. You get to learn so much. It becomes more serious," told the 36-year-old actress to ANI.
The serial sees Shagun in a different look with short hair and sober sarees post leap.
Though most of the actors don't take it well, Anita Hassanandani feels that leaps in the serials are refreshing.
"The leap is lot of fun because you are looking different. It's more exciting, you are working on your looks. There are new entrance, new characters and fresh bonding. Leap is always something that refreshes you after the monotonous thing; little change is always good," told Anita on the sideline of the sixth edition of ' India Runway Week 2016' in association with Big Boy Toyz.
' Yeh Hain Mohabbatein' took a leap sometime back with changes in characters, looks and tracks.
When the actress was asked for some spoilers, she, avoiding to disclose, said, "Because of the leap, interesting tracks are going to come up. We are going to have twists and turns to keep the audience hooked."
