00:00In this mansion, you can call me a ma'am, a servant, you can call me anything.

00:06I did it with the friendship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

00:10So I have broken the, you know, the tight cast.

00:30I have loved you all, my dear brothers, sisters, my friends, the media people, for 21 years.

00:39It's been 21 years since I've been in this industry.

00:42So, with all my heart, I would like to invite you all to our set, Durga,

00:46through Magic Moments Production, which is coming on Colors TV on 16th September,

00:53at 7.40 pm.

00:56For that, I would like to invite you all to our lovely set.

01:03And I would like to say that, Ganpati Pappa,

01:06it's a very good day to bless our show,

01:10because today is the 7th day,

01:14and even though Ganpati Pappa is leaving today, he is leaving with blessings.

01:20And I am very happy that I am meeting you all here on my set.

01:25Now, you can ask whatever you want.

01:28First of all, you can see that I am playing the role of Pani Bai,

01:34who is a Rajasthani woman.

01:37And of this house, of this mansion,

01:40you can call me a mistress, you can call me a servant, you can call me anything.

01:45Like, we know that in today's world, we don't call a servant a servant.

01:50Actually, if you see, the people who work for us, they become the master.

01:56And Pani Bai is also a woman like that,

01:59who had brought water to this mansion for many years,

02:03and now, she has taken control of this mansion.

02:10In this mansion, we have three sons,

02:14one is Savitri Bai,

02:17and the husband of Savitri Bai has passed away.

02:23So, the story starts from there.

02:26Why does Pani Bai live in this house?

02:28That is a back story, which I will not be able to tell you.

02:31And that is the clue, that is the code of our show.

02:36And Pani Bai has brought our Durga,

02:39who has also brought her to this mansion from a young age.

02:45Now, why has she brought her? For what reason has she brought her?

02:49That is also an undercover rap, which you will get to know in the show.

02:54But, Pani Bai is a very important catalyst,

02:58an antagonist, you can say that,

03:02the powerful character in this show,

03:05that is the character of Pani Bai.

03:07And we have,

03:09especially my friends here,

03:13my old friends, the media people here,

03:16they know that whatever Indira Krishna does,

03:19there is a little entertainment factor in it.

03:22And I will not say that,

03:25my efforts are 200%, but along with that,

03:29this character is a very important character for me.

03:32As you know, in every character,

03:35whether it is Krishna Ben Khakrawala,

03:37or the one I did for Colors, Krishna Dasi,

03:40I have done a different role.

03:42From where you talk about the look, or you talk about the speech,

03:47or you talk about the walk,

03:49or how you play that character,

03:53which connects the audience.

03:55I do exactly the same characters,

03:57even in real life, on television.

04:00So, Pani Bai is also a very real,

04:04live character that I have brought.

04:07Why real? Because you can see that,

04:10my look,

04:12the clothes that I wear,

04:14I wear these clothes so easily,

04:17so that this is a normal,

04:19for that character,

04:21Pani Bai can come in a normal form.

04:24The second thing is,

04:26that jewellery,

04:28the tribal, rural people,

04:30the Rajasthani people wear,

04:32along with that,

04:34I have introduced a new thing,

04:36my tattoos.

04:38As you can see, I have put them on my neck as well.

04:40I think on television,

04:42everyone uses markers,

04:44I have not used markers at all.

04:46I have used proper tattoos,

04:48the high-resolution tattoos,

04:52which last for 13-14 hours,

04:54until I reach home,

04:56and I scratch myself,

04:58and the tattoos come off.

05:00There is a lot of hard work,

05:02in this character,

05:04because wearing all this,

05:06you perform a powerful role,

05:08you perform entertainment,

05:10and along with that,

05:12speaking the Rajasthani,

05:14Rabari language,

05:16I have given a tone,

05:18in the language,

05:20a lot of,

05:22I mean,

05:24the rest of the artists,

05:26have not kept Rajasthani,

05:28except for Pani Bai.

05:30So I have given a tone,

05:32so that people can understand,

05:34what I am saying.

05:36Along with the tone,

05:38you will hear a lot of my clarity,

05:40in Rajasthani,

05:42and the character's base,

05:44I have given that as well.

05:46So you will enjoy this character a lot.

05:48Because I have done something new,

05:50on television,

05:52and along with the language,

05:54I have held this character.

05:56So all the episodes,

05:58you will see,

06:00the first episode,

06:02which we are going to introduce,

06:04has a back history,

06:06that why has Durga come to this house,

06:08and what is the relation

06:10between Durga and Pani Bai,

06:12and what is the relation

06:14between us and this house,

06:16that you will be able to understand.

06:18Ma'am, the biggest thing is,

06:20it is such a big house,

06:22you have taken over here,

06:24but you don't want to sit on good things,

06:26you just want to sit on the floor.

06:28So the reason,

06:30as you know,

06:32all the people of Rajasthan,

06:34the rural, tribal people,

06:36they never sit on the chair.

06:38And I have maintained that authenticity.

06:40When we were discussing

06:42about this character,

06:44they asked,

06:46Indira, what else

06:48will you be able to do in this character?

06:50So we, the creatives,

06:52thought that Pani Bai,

06:54has taken over this house,

06:56but she won't leave her roots,

06:58won't leave her tradition.

07:00So it is her tradition,

07:02you know, to sit on the floor,

07:04she sits on the floor and eats food,

07:06sometimes she sits on the floor,

07:08when she talks to someone,

07:10she sits on the floor.

07:12Usually everyone sits on the sofa,

07:14but she sits on the floor

07:16and talks.

07:18Because she is a tribal woman,

07:20and her upbringing,

07:22her culture,

07:24her tradition is from there.

07:26So we took this route,

07:28we talk about traditional look,

07:30but you should also follow

07:32the tradition.

07:34So that is what I showed

07:36in this show.

07:38I think first time,

07:40you must have seen shows like

07:42Amma ji's characters,

07:44but they all used to sit on the sofa.

07:46I have done it differently,

07:48I mean,

07:50I will sit on the floor and say my dialogues,

07:52from the floor,

07:54as much as you

07:56audience

07:58can connect,

08:00I have kept this character accordingly.

08:02Well,

08:04we would like to know,

08:06shows are very good start-ups,

08:08and have good storylines,

08:10but at the end,

08:12when the series ends,

08:14or the show ends,

08:16there is an essence of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

08:18Correct.

08:20Now the audience is bored,

08:22so do you think there is a mother-in-law and daughter-in-law here?

08:24So there is no mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in our show.

08:26First,

08:28there is no mother-in-law and daughter-in-law here.

08:30Here,

08:32I am the mother-in-law and I am the daughter-in-law.

08:34So whatever has to be done, Panibai will do.

08:36Here, there is Durga,

08:38and there is a relation with Durga,

08:40that of Panibai,

08:42she is afraid of Panibai,

08:44somewhere or the other.

08:46So we have

08:48made a very strong relation,

08:50that as soon as Panibai

08:52enters,

08:54she will open her mouth and

08:56something bad is going to happen.

08:58This is a very different show.

09:00And as you know,

09:02the writer of this show,

09:04she writes very different shows.

09:06The character

09:08of Panibai,

09:10when I went for the first time,

09:12and I have not met her,

09:14but the first time when I was

09:16asked for this show,

09:18that you come and

09:20we want to give a one-line brief of this character,

09:22I was very

09:24kicked by this character,

09:26because I felt that she is different,

09:28there is no mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

09:30If you watch my shows,

09:32I have never done the typical shows

09:34of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

09:36I had given a hit show,

09:38Savi Ki Savari, on Colors TV,

09:40which ran for more than a year.

09:42And in that too,

09:44I have never done a bestie,

09:46a mother-in-law and daughter-in-law,

09:48I did it with a friendship.

09:50So I have broken the,

09:52you know,

09:54the typecast,

09:56I have never done those roles.

09:58And this is also not a typecast role at all.

10:00Neither look-wise,

10:02nor, you know,

10:04the way I speak,

10:06it is completely different.

10:08What will be the USP of this show?

10:10Paani Bai.

10:12I feel

10:14USP is Paani Bai.

10:16And I feel Durga is also

10:18a USP of this show.

10:20I also feel it is the boy of this show,

10:22who is doing a very

10:24tremendous job.

10:26The character that is there,

10:28Durga looks like Durga,

10:30and Ashay Mishra,

10:32who is playing the role of Anurag,

10:34he looks like Anurag.

10:36The typical,

10:38the heir of a family,

10:40he looks like that.

10:42You know, that family,

10:44belongs to the Rajasthan family.

10:46So he looks like Rajput in that.

10:48So the casting that they have done,

10:50after seeing all that,

10:52a freshness has also come.

10:54And Pranali has already

10:56a fan following,

10:58because she has done this relation.

11:00But in this, I think she will get

11:02even a bigger fan following,

11:04because her character is very different

11:06in this show.

11:08Thank you so much for an opportunity.

11:10Thank you very much. Thank you, dear.
