Urmila's character in the series

Talking about her upcoming series, the actress revealed as reported by ANI, "This one offered me characters and a story arc that are challenging as a performer and things that I haven't attempted so far. Written and created by a team of young writers, the team managed to keep me hooked till the end while narrating it. What I liked the most about the story is that, at its core, it's an emotional mother-daughter story, but at the same time, it has everything from drama to action to some thrilling twists and turns. I can't wait to start shooting."

Director Saurabh Varma of Tiwari in an exclusive chat with Times Of India revealed Some intriguing information.

Saurabh said, "Urmila will be seen doing a lot of action in this film and she will be training for the same."

He said, ¡°She told me that she received many offers in the past few years but she didn¡¯t want to hurry it up. This is also her digital debut. We will be shooting it in real locations in Bhopal. She has a legacy so there¡¯s a responsibility on my part that I can¡¯t make something for the heck of it. She is so immersed in the role and the film."

In addition, Saurabh said Urmila had turned down more than 50 scripts during the previous five to seven years. So, even though he had asked the correct questions, it still came as a major surprise to him when she answered yes.
