One of the most popular TV dramas right now is Aangan which features a stellar cast including Mawra Hocane, Sajal Aly and Ahad Raza Mir in lead roles. While fans of the novel already know the story, they watch the play with great anticipation and the plot has got everyone hooked. Now, Mawra has revealed that although she is playing the lead character in the drama, she wasn’t the first choice for it.
In an exclusive conversation with Something Haute, Mawra shared details about her role in the play.
“After Sammi, I was offered another character, I was never Aaliya in Aangan”. But when asked if she would like to reveal who that character was she said, “no because everybody is playing their character so beautifully, however, if I had played that character I would have done it very differently.”
She added that Aaliya’s role was only offered to her 10 days ahead of the shoot which made her extremely nervous because such characters require more internal work than external.
