Over the years, Star Plus’s popular TV show Saath Nibhaana Saathiya has been known to captivate the audience with its gripping storyline. On the return of its second season, the show continued to keep its viewers hooked as it made its way amongst the Top 10 shows in the industry. Gearing up for an upcoming unusual sequence in the show, lead actress Sneha Jain (Gehna) seeking inspiration from Bollywood’s most iconic actor Amitabh Bachchan who was seen essaying the character of a lawyer in the critically acclaimed & National Award Winning movie Pink which was released in 2016. Not forgetting the thrilling Bollywood film Aitraaz (which was released in 2004) that also stunned the audience with Kareena Kapoor Khan’s mesmerizing performance as a lawyer. These popular Bollywood characters set in perfect examples for Sneha as she looks forward to captivating the audience in the coming episodes.
On finding inspiration from ideal Bollywood actors like Amitabh Bachchan & Kareena Kapoor Khan for her upcoming transformation from Bahu and deciding to be a lawyer in SNS2, Sneha says “For an actor, an unusual change in script or role is said to be difficult as they demand maturity and composure at the same time. Though, when I received the brief about the upcoming sequence, I instantly knew whom I’d to look up to and that was none other than quintessential Bollywood actors like Amitabh Bachchan & Kareena Kapoor Khan as their roles in their respective movies Pink and Aitraaz were perfect examples for me to seek inspiration from. The similarities in all the three characters helped me gain a lot of confidence and composure. All I hope is that the audience gets touched and moved by this new journey in the show.”
In the show, during Anant’s (played by Harsh Nagar) court hearing, everyone is convinced that Anant will get a jail sentence but at the last moment, Gehna is called into the witness box for her statement. She has complete proof against the real culprit and Gehna flips the case completely and the judge announces Anant to be innocent in the case. Anant is let go from police custody with all accusations on him proven false. Post that Gehna tells Anant that she has a new ambition- she wants to become a lawyer to help innocents like Anant so that they never get wrongly punished.
