With every new twist, Zee TV’s Jaane Anjaane Hum Mile, starring Bharat Ahlawwat (Raghav) and Aayushi Khurrana (Reet), continues to keep viewers hooked with its compelling narrative . While the current track sees Sharda Bua/ Shalini Batra (Jayati Bhatia) once again emerging as the mastermind behind Reet and Raghav’s heartbreak after secretly kidnapping their newborn, it is Jayati Bhatia’s powerful portrayal of the devious and manipulative Sharda that has made the character one of the show’s biggest talking points. As Shalini Bua’s negativity has only intensified over the last one and a half years, Jayati Bhatia opens up about slipping into such a dark mindset every day, online criticism and how she ensures it never affects the person she is off-screen.
Sharing her experience, Jayati Bhatia said, “Playing Sharda, aka Shalini Batra, for over one and a half years has been one of the most challenging yet fulfilling journeys of my career. With every twist in the story, Sharda’s negativity has only grown, and staying in that headspace for 12–14 hours a day pushes me as an actor. But the moment I pack up, I make it a point to leave Sharda on the sets and become Jayati again. My co-stars have always understood that Sharda is just a character, so off-screen we’re constantly laughing and enjoying each other’s company. As for the audience, when they get angry with Sharda or criticize her actions, I take it as a compliment because it means they’ve completely accepted me in the role. I never take those reactions personally. Instead, they motivate me to portray Sharda with even more conviction and honesty. For me, that’s the biggest reward of playing a powerful negative character.”
Now, as Reet’s baby, Reyansh, unknowingly finds his way back home, Sharda is determined to ensure that the mother-son duo never reunites. What new conspiracy will Sharda Bua hatch next, and will Reet finally uncover the truth? The upcoming episodes promise even more gripping twists and emotional drama.
