The Actor Is Honoured That The Makers Offered Him The Role!
He further added, "Gender stereotypes need to be spoken about in order to bring a change and I'm honoured that Colors and Rashmi Sharma Telefilms have given me this opportunity."
Donal’s Role On Roop
About her role, Donal said in a statement, "I will play Ishika who is strong, lives in the modern era with modern thinking and with an attitude that a girl can be an earning member of the house. I totally resonate with the character as I have been independent and have made my mark without any help from anyone."
The Show Has A Unique Concept
The actress further said, "The show's concept is very unique and will break the stereotype of the current running shows on Indian television where the girl is a mere household help. We live in the 21st century and my producer Rashmi Sharma has brought this concept to light beautifully."
Roop Is Made To Change The Image Of The Man In Today’s Society!
About the show, Rashmi Sharma had said, "We wanted to challenge the stereotypical mentality that is associated with masculinity. The woman's place is as important as a man's in a family. It is usually perceived that a woman's role includes just marriage and motherhood. Roop is our form of a small effort to change the image of the man in today's society."
