Urvashi Dholakia aka Komolika: ‘I am itching to once again play a role that becomes iconic’

There are some actors who portray their characters so wonderfully that they become one of the biggest highlights to remember a show or film by. One of the best examples of this is definitely Urvashi Dholakia’s spectacular performance as Komolika Majumdar in Kasautii Zindagii Kay. She took the term ‘vamp’ to another level thanks to her killer expressions, over the top outfits and her iconic bindi! Even now most of her fans clearly remember Komolika’s ‘Nika’ background music.

While the beauty received a lot of love from fans for her portrayal of the iconic character, Urvashi now wants to break free and try out a new, fresh avatar. In an interview with ETimes, the actress explained, “As much as I love the work that I have done, I also feel that there is a certain stereotyping that has happened. Somewhere, people stop seeing you outside the character that you play. I’m done being a sari-clad vamp, it’s time people see my other shades.”

Urvashi shared that she has received many offers but she wants to try something new, a character she hasn’t played in the past. She is even up for a negative or grey-shaded character, but she wants it to be beyond what she has already done. The actress was quoted saying, “Times have changed and I am itching to once again play a role that becomes iconic, the medium can be any — television, OTT or films. What’s most important is that there needs to be a spark that can light up the screen.”

Well, fans would love to see her shine on-screen again. We can’t wait to hear about her next project!
