Sargun Mehta after a break of a year, will be back with Zee’s Rishton Ka Mela. RKM follows the journey of the protagonist Deepika (Sargun), who is a runaway bride, escaping from her tyrant police inspector fiancé. She runs into a mela where she meets interesting women, each with a story of her own. The show sees Deepika as a part of their stories and how they contribute to her journey. The cast of Rishton Ka Mela includes Usha Nadkarni, Ratan Rajput, Anupam Shyam, Karan Mehra, Hiten Tejwani, Gauri Pradhan, Shayantani Ghosh, Karan Grover and others.
Sargun says, “I haven’t attempted a finite fiction series like this before. Besides the show brings back some of Zee’s most iconic faces under one roof. These were the key factors that led me to taking on the show. It’s a love story against the backdrop of a festive mela. So, there’s a lovely carnival feel to the entire show. The set that brings alive the mela is quite elaborate and real.”
Of her role, Sargun says, “My character Deepika is a runaway bride. How she comes in touch with some strong women and joins forces with them and saves the traditional mela forms the crux of the story. Deepika’s own love story, in the process, reaches an interesting culmination.”
