Fans of talented actress Kaushiki Rathore have been missing her presence on their television screens. Known for her memorable roles in popular shows like Krishna Chali London, Gudiya Hamari Sabhi Pe Bhari, and Story 9 Months Ki, the actress has been absent since concluding her nuanced grey character of Sumona in Durga Aur Charu.
The Reason Behind the Deliberate Pause
After much speculation from her admirers, Kaushiki has finally broken her silence. She explains that her departure from the small screen was a conscious and deliberate decision. The driving force behind this break is her quest for substantial and challenging work.
"I have been looking for prominent characters and, at the same time, I want to do roles which challenge me as an actor. That’s why I have been away after my last show," the actress stated. For her, this choice is deeply connected to a need for creative evolution. She has never been interested in repeating the same type of character, believing that true growth for an actor comes from stepping outside one's comfort zone.
A Philosophy of Artistic Growth
Kaushiki Rathore's approach to her craft is defined by a desire to experiment and explore. She received significant praise for her portrayal of the layered character Sumona, which allowed her to delve into complex emotions. However, she believes that every new project should represent an artistic step forward, not just another credit on her filmography.
"As an actor, I have always believed in experimenting, and it helps me push my limits," she elaborated. "I don’t want to get comfortable doing similar roles. Growth happens only when you choose parts that scare you a little, excite you creatively and make you explore new shades of performance."
What's Next for the Versatile Actress?
So, what is Kaushiki Rathore doing during this hiatus? She is far from idle. The actress is actively engaged in the process of finding that perfect role that will mark her return. She reveals that she is reading scripts and meeting creators, patiently waiting for a character that truly ignites a creative spark within her.
With a career already distinguished by versatility and powerful, character-driven performances, Kaushiki is firmly focused on quality over quantity. Her eventual return to television will not be a simple comeback. She promises it will be a fresh chapter, carefully shaped by intention, personal growth, and stories that genuinely challenge her as an artist.
