Asked to age Urvashi Sharma quits 'Amma'
Actress Urvashi Sharma aka Raina Sachiin Joshi, who made her TV debut with producer Farhn P Zama's Ek Maa Jo Lakhon Ke Liye Bani Amma (Zee TV) has now quit the show.
When asked Urvashi says,"The leap is about to begin and I am supposed to look 60+ years old. We had several rounds of look test with couple of different makeup artist but somehow I was not convinced with the ageing. It is difficult for someone who is in her late 20's to look in her 60's without prosthetic make up. In a television world for a main lead to do prosthetic make up every day is not possible at all as it takes too much time. So finally I requested Farhn,the producer of Amma that they should get someone from that age group and after a lot of resistance he agreed."
Talking more on her overall experience Urvashi adds,"I am thankful to Subhash Chandra and Zee TV team who understood the whole scenario. Usually in a finite series, artists don't change. But they all agreed and gave their approval on this decision .Though I am not physically present on the set anymore but my heart and good wishes will always be there for Amma. In last few months I have spent maximum time with them than my family. Television is tough and hectic but I enjoyed it. Now I can go to the set to meet them and not be bothered about getting drained emotionally."
