Doctor-turned-model and actress Roma Arora was last seen in TV shows like Jhanak, Kathaa Ankahee, and Kundali Bhagya. She is currently the lead actress in a live theatre play titled Pyar Mein Twist. Talking about her show Jhanak, she shares her enthusiasm for being part of the project. “I played the character of Queenie Bedi, a celebrity dance reality show judge. Jhanak is a serial that follows the journey of a girl named Jhanak, who dreams of becoming a famous dancer. She participates in a prestigious dance reality show, where I evaluate her performances. Through my character, I push Jhanak to explore her full potential and showcase her incredible talent,” she says.
When discussing the kind of roles she enjoys playing, she shares, “So far, I’ve portrayed characters like Sophia on Zee TV's Kundali Bhagya, where I played Karan’s girlfriend from the USA. With a bratty attitude, Sophia often pointed out Preeta's middle-class background, adding an interesting dynamic to the show. She was a bubbly yet negative character.”
She adds, “I find that playing negative roles is where I truly enjoy myself as an actor. It’s not a side of me that I get to express in real life—being able to portray something mischievous or even demeaning is both challenging and fun. I feel that there’s much more depth and range to explore in negative characters, and I really enjoy the process of bringing them to life. It’s entertaining to portray such complex roles, and as an actor, that’s what excites me the most.”
