Due
to
the
COVID-19
lockdown,
a
number
of
TV
shows
had
to
shut
shop
as
broadcasters
and
producers
were
enduring
huge
financial
losses.
Meera
Deosthale
headed
Vidya
on
Colors
was
one
such
show
that
had
to
face
the
brunt
of
the
pandemic.
And
now,
the
actress
who
was
seen
in
the
titular
role
in
the
social
drama
has
opened
up
about
its
abrupt
ending
and
more
in
an
interview
with
TOI.
Meera
said,
“The
journey
of
Vidya
was
half
lived,
but
I
learnt
a
lot
while
working
for
the
show.
Working
for
that
show
was
totally
different
and
it
was
an
unconventional
character.
Every
day
was
a
challenge
to
keep
the
innocence
and
purity
of
Vidya
alive.”
She
went
on
to
add,
“I
had
heard
about
a
few
other
shows
going
off-air
on
other
channels.
I
understand
that
the
network
is
going
through
a
financial
crunch.
Of
course,
we
all
wish
to
keep
working,
but
it’s
a
testing
time
and
I
have
always
believed
that
whatever
happens
is
for
a
reason.
I
shall
stay
safe
for
a
while
at
my
house
and
wait
for
work
opportunities
to
come
by."
On
being
quizzed
about
her
earlier
show
Udaan
and
the
role
of
Chakor,
the
actress
revealed,
“The
backdrops
of
the
shows,
Udaan
and
Vidya,
were
similar.
Chakor
will
always
be
the
closest
to
my
heart
as
I
portrayed
the
character
for
three
years.
And
that
character
has
taught
me
a
lot.
If
you
talk
about
Vidya,
I
related
to
her
innocence
but
since
it
was
the
story
of
an
uneducated
girl,
there
was
a
lot
of
unlearning
I
had
to
do.
Before
taking
up
the
role,
I
was
apprehensive
about
getting
typecast.”
