The tv show Bhagya Lakshmi is set against the backdrop of Mumbai and is based on the journey of Lakshmi. The character of Lakshmi is a selfless girl with limited means. Yeh Hai Chahatein fame actress Aishwarya Khare who essays the role of Lakshmi, has been paired opposite actor Rohit Suchanti. Popular television actor, Uday Tikekar has also been roped in to essay the role of Virendra Oberoi.
Talking about his character in an interview with BT, Uday Tikekar mentioned, “Although Virendra Oberoi is a rich hotelier he is a very grounded person who has struggled and worked hard to reach where he is today. That is why he knows the value of life and is extremely humble and polite to every person no matter what the situation is. To be honest, this character is quite unlike me but for someone who has always enjoyed playing varied characters, I am really enthused to essay this role. I am someone who loves to joke around, be happy, and laugh out loud, but for this character, I have to remind myself every day that I need to stay calm, speak softly to maintain the onscreen character. However, I am extremely glad to be a part of this show and excited to work with Balaji. I certainly believe that it is going to be an amazing journey.”
Uday further adds, “Just like my show, I am also a 100% believer of Karma, you reap what you sow. I believe in the whole ‘Live and Let Live’ philosophy because all the good or bad that one does, definitely comes back, maybe now or maybe in the future.”
