Shalini confirmed the same and told a leading daily that, "I play Saloni, a beautiful village belle. My character will bring in a major twist in the story. I will be seen in a never-seen-before avatar. I had to learn to speak the village lingo for the part."

She further added, "The most interesting part is that I play both the heroine and the vamp. I am also excited to explore the fantasy genre after a long time with this project."
Speaking about her two-year break from Television, Shalini revealed that she is now looking forward to try her luck in Bollywood now. She told TOI that, "Yes, I have been on a break from television. I want to branch out to films now. I am also training very hard, learning gymnastics and boxing. I want to do an action film. You don't get that kind of time to focus on yourself while doing a daily soap. However, I took up 'Laal Ishq', because I haven't attempted anything like this in my career so far."
Best known for playing the role of 'Sonia' in Dipika Kakar & Avika Gor's hit 'Colors' show 'Sasural Simar Ka', Shalini Sahuta has also featured in shows like 'Naaginn', 'Baba Aiso Varr Dhundo' among others.
