The actress said that for her, experimenting is a must. She added that in current times, when content is king, she would like to be part of substantial content, be it any genre. She feels that with so many options available, given the many platforms, one can be choosy and do the kind of work that they want to.
She said, "I waited for one and a half years for a role like Dr Monami. I was being offered other roles, but those didn't work for me. Bubbly ladki hai, chirpy hai... that was the description of almost every character that was offered to me. That was because my character Kuhu in Yeh Rishtey... became a hit. I didn't want to repeat that, instead, I wanted to play a contrasting character which I finally bagged."
The
actress
said
that
people
in
the
industry
tend
to
offer
the
same
kind
of
roles
and
feels
it
is
because
the
industry
doesn't
want
to
take
risk
or
do
not
have
faith
on
the
actor.
However,
she
said
that
she
was
lucky
to
have
producers
who
trust
her.
Kaveri concluded by saying, "The sad truth about our industry is that people offer you the kind of roles that they have already seen you doing. Either they do not want to take risks or they lack that sort of faith in you and perhaps themselves as well. I was lucky enough to have producers who trusted me with a different and fleshed-out character."
