Mumbai: TV actress Parineeta Borthakur didn't want to play a mother again on a show, but agreed to do "Meri Durga" in Star Plus show, after seeing the strength of her character.


The actress, best known for playing a mother on the show "Swaragini - Jodein Rishton Ke Sur", will now turn negative on the small screen.

"I am playing an aristocratic character. She has been brought up like a queen. The character's name is tentatively called Gayatri Devi. I am playing this character because it is very strong and the main negative role on the show," Parineeta said in a statement.

"Initially, I didn't want to do it. I spoke to them three to four times because I was reluctant to play a mother to grown-up actors, but the role is interesting; so I went ahead," she added.

Her character is the mother of Sanjay Prince, portrayed by Paras Kalnawat, on "Meri Durga".

Parineeta recently was in news due to her transformation. Check out her pictures:
