Mumbai: TV actress Shraddha Arya, known for her roles in shows like "Main Lakshmi Tere Aangan Ki", "Tumhari Pakhi" and "Dream Girl - Ek Ladki Deewani Si", says she is not comfortable doing bold scenes onscreen.


Shraddha says she has been offered a lot of web series. However, she feels their concepts are "very bold" for her.

"Their concept is very bold that's why I have said no to a couple of web series. I am not against being bold, but I am not comfortable with that. I am not that character. I am like the characters that I play on TV... Like in 'Kundali Bhagya'," Shraddha told IANS.

"I love playing out in safe zone. I was offered a lot of web series, even I auditioned for one of them. But then I was not comfortable. I felt a discomfort.








"At the moment, I am not comfortable (doing bold scenes), maybe tomorrow (in future)... If it really makes sense to me, though I don't think it will ever," she added.

Shraddha came into the limelight when she participated in the talent-based reality TV show "India's Best Cinestars Ki Khoj" in 2004. Since then she has carved out a niche for herself on the small screen. She also appeared in Bollywood and southern cinema.

"I don't think anybody is doing shows back-to-back like me. After 'Dream Girl', I hosted 'Mazaak Mazaak Mein'. I also shot for a Punjabi movie in Canada for two months. In between that, I also shot for a TV show, but that project didn't really work out and I stepped out of it," Shraddha said.










Shraddha will be seen in forthcoming  Zee TV show "Kundali Bhagya" -- a spin-off of Zee TV's popular entertainer "Kumkum Bhagya", backed by TV czarina Ekta Kapoor.

"For a very long time, Ekta and I are having a hit-and-miss. She had approached me for 'Pardes Mein Hai Mera Dil', but things didn't work out during that time. We talked about doing shows together a couple of times and after that finally I got 'Kundali Bhagya'," Shraddha said.





Asked about comparisons with Sriti Jha, who plays the lead role in "Kumkum Bhagya", Shraddha said: "I'll be very happy if people will compare me with Sriti Jha because it's a big challenge to be a natural actor like her. It's a healthy pressure."

"Kundali Bhagya" will start from July 12.
