Speaking to Hindustan Times, Soma Rathod said, “I am mid-weight, neither slim nor fat, due to which I faced a lot of rejection hearing ‘aap thodi moti hoti to aapko kaam mil jata’. So, kha-pee kar weight badha liye and it clicked for me. I have no desire to look very beautiful and hot! I am 41 but I have played mother to people (Rohitashv Gour, who is 55) who are much older than me. In fact, I am happy playing a mother and that’s how I have pitched myself as an actor.”
Soma Rathod further shared that “I want makers to experiment with me through different characters like a godmother, Thakurain, out-and-out negative role, or a very emotional character, who makes people shed tears.”
She plays the mother of Manmohan Tiwari (played by Rohitashv Gour) in Bhabiji Ghar Par Hain. In the show, we have seen glimpses of her amazing dance skills, and her comic timing needs no introduction.
