MUMBAI : The show 'Anandi Baa Aur Emily' explores the dynamics of relationships between each family member and Emily, the foreigner bahu. Chaos ensues in their household as Anandi Baa tries to figure out how to get rid of Emily with the help of some family members. The reality of the situation dawns on her, and we get to see the beautiful relationship go from initial hesitancy to understanding and accepting.
The dynamic of a traditional Indian family gets shaken due to the arrival of a foreign 'bahu'. The cast includes Kanchan Gupta in the role of 'Anandi Baa', Jazzy Ballerini as exotic bahu 'Emily', and Mishkat Verma as the male lead, 'Aarav'.
In an exclusive interaction with us, Kanchan Gupta spoke about her character, comparison and more.
Tell us more about your character Anandi Baa.
Well, this character is not at all cute or very easygoing. It is not the same as what I did in Kya Haal, Mr Paanchal? She is very strict and always wants to walk on the path of ethics but she is also very naughty.
Will it be appropriate to compare your character with Goliyon Ki Rasleela – Ramleela’s Supriya Pathak aka Dhankorbaa?
Yes, a bit I can say my role is relatable to Supriya Pathak’s role of Dhankorbaa of Goliyon Ki Rasleela – Ramleela but it is not a total copy of hers. I have added my twist as well to adapt the Gujarati accent being a Punjabi.
What all things have you considered in breaking the stereotypical image of a mother-in-law?
Well, for a long time we have drawn an imagination that she will be sarcastic and always in a mood to fight. But honestly, my mother-in-law is not the same. In fact, she loved me more than her son, so I take inspiration from her for my role in Anandi Baa.
Good luck, Kanchan!
