Star Plus’ much-talked-about show Sanjivani, which hit the small screen a couple of weeks ago, has received overwhelming response from the audience. To keep the audience hooked to the show further, the makers are now going to introduce a new character.
Yes, the medical drama is set to witness a new entry in the form of actress Aarti Bahl. For the unversed, Aarti is the wife of seasoned actor Mohnish Bahl who plays Dr Shashank on the show. She will join her husband on Sanjivani soon.
Aarti Bahl started her acting career in films and was earlier known as Ekta Sohini. She has done a number of notable films in her career including Awwal Number (1990), Saajan (1991), Tahalka (1992), and Vaastav (1999). The actress is making a comeback to acting after a long gap of 12 years. She will play a mother to Namit Khanna’s character, Dr Siddhant Mathur.
"Producer Siddharth Malhotra is a good friend and I worked with him earlier too. Both Siddharth and his wife Sapna had been wanting to work with me, but I did not know it would happen so soon. Since my husband was also a part of the show, I thought it would be great," Aarti told an Indian daily.
Talking about teaming up with husband Mohnish again, she says, "He is a great actor and he has played his roles so well that you can't imagine anyone else playing that role, whether it is a doctor, elder brother or a villain. For both of us, the script and the director has always been the most important and in Sanjivani too, I felt that playing Dr Sid's (Namit Khanna) mother would be an interesting role. My daughter Pranutan has debuted this year in films, my husband is already doing a TV show and now with me joining him, we will again be and all- working family," she concluded.
