MUMBAI: Following the phenomenal success of Jodha Akbar and Jhansi ki Rani, Zee TV recently premiered its biggest historical magnum opus, telling the forgotten story of Kashibai Bajirao Ballal, one of the most legendary women of the Maratha empire. The show has continued to steal the hearts of the audience since its launch, and while all the members on the sets have become like a family, our little Kashibai a.k.a Aarohi Patel is learning every day from her co-star Venkatesh Pande (Bajirao) on the set and trying to perfect the nuances of her scenes.
In the upcoming episodes of the show, viewers will get to witness how Bajirao's father Balaji Vishwanath receives the title of ‘Peshwa’ from Chhatrapati Shahu Maharaj which is a dream come true for him and his wife Radhabai. To celebrate the appointment, a ‘Powada dance’ is performed by Bajirao and Kashibai with their people to praise the achievement, bravery and valour of their warriors. Being an accomplished dancer who had made a mark for himself on Zee TV's DID Li'l Masters as a child, Venkatesh aced the challenging choreography set by famous choreographer Phulwa Khamkar effortlessly. While Phulwa left no stone unturned in putting up a mesmerising act together, it was Venkatesh who kept helping Aarohi with certain steps and expressions. No wonder, the final shot got them a round of applause from the entire crew on the set with this spectacular act that was literally okayed in single takes!
Talking about the dance performance, Aarohi said, “Shooting for the Powada dance sequence was not easy, the style of the steps is very different than the usual dance steps one is used to but thanks to Phulawa Di and Venky Bhaiya, as always, who helped me. He not just helped me with the practice of the dance but taught me the culture and origin of the dance form. Every day is a new learning for me on the sets of the show with my amazing co-actors.”
Well, Aarohi appears to be having a blast attempting and learning new acting and dancing tips from co-star Venkatesh Pande. On the other hand, Bajirao (Venkatesh Pande) and Kashi are slowly becoming friends on the show. But will Radhabai accept this friendship or create more challenges for Kashibai?
