Mumbai:
Actress
Monica
Bedi,
who
plays
a
vamp
in
Sanjay
Leela
Bhansali's
debut
TV
show
Saraswatichandra,
was
not
sceptical
about
doing
a
negative
role
and
says
she
does
not
fear
being
typecast
on
the
small
screen.
Bhansali's
show
is
based
on
the
popular
Gujarati
novel
Saraswatichandra
by
Govardhanram
Madhavaram
Tripathi.
It
is
set
in
the
early
20th
century
and
revolves
around
two
Gujarati
families.
"I
don't
fear
getting
typecast.
I
am
not
scared
of
being
called
the
vamp
of
small
screen.
As
this
is
not
the
typical
vamp
character.
It
is
a
grey
shade...
It
is
not
negative
completely.
If
we
look
at
what
SRK
did
in
Baazigar,
Kajol
did
in
Gupt..
Its
the
biggest
of
artists
who
did
negative
characters...
It
adds
to
your
career," Monica
told
PTI
in
an
interview
here.
"I
am
not
worried
that
I
would
be
looked
in
a
negative
way.
I
think
today
audience
is
far
more
intelligent
to
understand
that
this
is
a
character
and
that
we
are
just
working,"
she
said.
Considering
she
is
not
married
and
plays
a
role
of
a
stepmother
in
the
soap,
Monica
said,
"I
was
not
sceptical
to
take
a
role
of
a
stepmother.
This
role
is
very
interesting.
I
am
in
love
with
this
character.
There
is
lot
of
scope
for
acting
and
to
do
something
different.
I
couldn't
see
myself
doing
typical
sweet
heroine
kind
of
a
role." The
35-year-old
feels
negative
characters
are
of
utmost
importance
as
they
bring
in
a
juicy
element.
"Somewhere
I
feel
negative
characters
are
quite
interesting
to
play
on
screen.
As
they
are
the
ones
who
bring
twists
and
turns
in
the
story,"
she
said.
Talking
about
her
role,
Monica
says,
"She
is
a
very
smart
girl.
She
is
powerful
and
an
intelligent
lady.
Her
background
is
that
she
is
a
dancer
and
how
she
enters
the
life
of
this
multi
billionaire
and
marries
him,
tries
to
claim
the
property.
She
is
possessive
and
caring
towards
her
family."
