ALTT is back with a new season of its popular fantasy period drama series –Paurashpur Season 3. It’s a battle for the throne, and the third season is expected to be deadlier than the first two. The series stars Sherlyn Chopra, Kajol Tyagi, Anubhav Srivastava, Payal Raha and Prajakta Dusane. Sherlyn will be seen on screen playing the interesting character again. The series is directed by KayCee.
Throwing more light on her character Sherlyn says, “In Paurashpur 2, I played the role of Maharani Snehlata who is portrayed as the ultimate contender for the throne of Paurashpur. In Paurashpur 3, I not only play the role of Maharani Snehlata but also the role of Vishkanya Bhaumika who happens to have an uncanny resemblance to Maharani Snehlata! Both the characters are rooted in grit, resilience and iron will!”
The series has been compared with Baahubali and on this Sherlyn strongly objects. She says,”It would be unfair to compare Paurashpur’s budget to Baahubali’s astronomical budget. However, Paurashpur’s highly gripping story, unpredictable screenplay and witty, razor sharp dialogues are indeed praise worthy! The grandeur of Paurashpur is spellbinding! The grand sets of Paurashpur with intricate vintage interiors not only add more depth & authenticity but also more valour and conviction to the storytelling of Paurashpur. Each time I was on the sets of Paurashpur dressed as Maharani Snehlata and/or Vishkanya Bhaumika, I’d get goosebumps as the enchanting sets would transport me to an era of costume drama rooted in power, grit, strength, seduction and betrayal.”
As we have seen, the second episode of Season 3 ends with a big cliffhanger. So what can we expect from the next few episodes? She explains, “The plot twist towards the end of the second episode of Season 3 is an indication of the series of unpredictable moments that are lined up in the upcoming episodes! What one can truly expect from Paurashpur 3 is never seen before betrayal, deceit, mind games, back-stabbing, uncontrollable passion, yearning for pure love and an insatiable zest to conquer the throne of Paurashpur. When it comes to my character I must mention that the crux of the story of Paurashpur 3 revolves around Maharani Snehlata’s undying love for her daughter, Chandrika. It is this unimaginable love between the mother-daughter duo that causes the birth of two sisters who take ahead the legacy of Paurashpur in ways more than one. Out of all the emotions displayed in Paurashpur 3, the one emotion that stands out is the undying and unimaginable love between Maharani Snehlata and her daughter, Chandrika. The message is loud and clear and it is - if you mess with the powerful & relentless Maharani Snehlata, you will utterly regret it; but if you mess with her child, she will seek the ultimate vengeance which will make your soul quiver incessantly!”
ALTT’s Paurashpur is a franchise for which audiences wait with bated breath! On this Sherlyn says, “The audience has showered crazy love to the episodes of Paurashpur which proves that passionate storytelling, raw, unfiltered emotions and unpredictable moments are key to keeping an audience engaged and hooked to the story and its characters. Working with ALTT has been highly satisfying, it has helped me become much better and more professional as an actor than ever before.”
Sherlyn Chopra and her bold avtaar is known by all and that has been beautifully used in the series. Commenting on that she says, “The bold scenes in Paurashpur have been shot quite aesthetically. While shooting bold scenes, only the technicians who are actually needed remain present on the set along with female assistant directors and female stylists.” In the world of entertainment Ekta Kapoor is a name which is unanimously known for her versatility in content and execution. Sherlyn is highly impressed with Ekta as well and adds,”Over the years, Ekta ma’m has been acing her game as a storyteller and an entrepreneur which is highly inspirational! The fact that she is also a loving, caring mother makes her an icon for all the women across the globe who aspire to be both a successful entrepreneur and a dutiful mother.”
