A wedding outfit has its challenges, says Monika Chauhan
Mumbai: Shooting for wedding sequences is a lot of fun for actors, especially the ones who play the bride. Getting a chance to wear gorgeous outfits with beautiful jewellery and makeup is definitely one of the best parts of being part of the show. Recently, Dangal TV’s most popular and loved show Ranju Ki Betiyaan is ready to entertain the audience with the upcoming wedding of Shalu Mishra and Vishesh Pandey. Monika Chauhan who plays the character Shalu shares that she was very excited to dress up as a bride but reveals that it was not as easy for her to carry the heavy outfit and jewellery especially in the heat.
Sharing her experience on shooting the wedding sequence and talking about the difficulties she faced, Monika says, “For the wedding sequence, I had dressed up as a complete Indian bride. While I was excited to be dressing up as a bride, getting into the dress and shooting in it was really tough. The outfit was extremely beautiful yet very heavy. My jewellery was simple and not very heavy, but the neck choker did hurt me and I got a few marks near my collar bone. The dupatta was very difficult to carry. My co-star Roopal Tyagi was a great help. She carried my basket where I kept all the jewellery and some other things. During the bidai scene, I had to run in the costume which was challenging. I had to watch every step so I did not fall. I wanted to meet the expectations of the audience and hope my hard work was worth it. It was a wonderful experience.”
We are sure Monika’s hard work will pay off and the audience will enjoy the wedding episodes.

It delves into the various societal issues faced by single mothers, and will witness Ranju empowering herself to raise her four daughters single-handedly to help them achieve their dreams.
