Although the character is difficult, I believe my hard work can do complete justice to it. I was hopeful and very focused throughout the entire lockdown period for working in this project. I even started working on my Bengali accent, started learning to sing in the period so that my delivery in the series is an absolute match to the character and also to the vision of the director.
