Blessed to play characters of Goddesses on TV; Shiva Pathania on assaying Devi Parvati in &TV's Baal Shiv


By Rajesh Ahuja

She had earlier caught the attention of viewers with her roles of Radha in the show Radhakrishn on Star Bharat and that of Goddess Sita in Ram Siya Ke Luv Kush on Sony entertainment television.

Actress Shiva Pathania will now be seen playing the role of Devi Parvati in Baal Shiv,  the upcoming show on &TV  that tells the mythical story of the Baal Roop of Lord Shiva.

Ahead of the premiere of Baal Shiv on &TV on November 23, Shiva Pathania said that she considers herself  as fortunate to have got an opportunity to play a variety of Goddesses' on television.

In a chat ahead of the telecast of the show,  Shiva Pathania said, 'Essaying goddesses’ character is equally rewarding and challenging. These are strong characters and viewers have a certain mindset or imagery about them. These are larger than life characters which poses a challenge for  an actor to create  a distinct imagery which is refreshing, and one with which the audience can resonate and relate.

I am one of the few blessed actors to get an opportunity to essay a variety of Goddess’ characters and it is quite fascinating. I am sure Devi Parvati’s character in Baal Shiv will stand out and will present an exciting perspective”.

The actress said that playing a Goddess calls for a lot of research on part of the actor.

'A lot of research and hard work goes into assaying these characters. . One must pay a lot of attention to diction, expression, dialogues alongside managing the heavy costume, makeup and jewelry. Every minutest of details matter and one just cannot just add their own element as it might just fall out of place.

However, these characters have a grandeur and are alluring,'she said.

The actress said that she is excited to be part of the show.

''I am a Shiv Bhakt in real life and feel extremely fortunate to be a part of the show and essay the role of Devi Parvati. The show is about Shiv's childhood, and I was excited to be part of the show as it depicts the undekhi gatha of Mahadev's Baal roop,'she said,

Talking about the character, Shiva Pathania said, 'Devi Parvati plays a pivotal part in the show as the audience will get to see how after getting married to Shiv, Devi Parvati will be seen settling in her new phase of life. Initially, she will be demanding and will have certain apprehensions, but eventually, she will understand the true nature of Kailash. It is indeed a challenging role and I hope to be able to portray it with grace."

Baal Shiv', set to premiere on &TV starting November 23, every Monday to Friday at 8:00 pm, is the story about the Baal Roop of Lord Shiva

While there have been several fascinating shows on Lord Shiva and his various roops, one story that has not been shown before on Indian television is the story of his Baal Roop.

Aptly positioned Mahadev Ki Undekhi Gatha, the show will depict the mythical Katha of the mother and son, Mahasati Anusuya and Baal Shiv, and their eternal bond.

Considered Infinite and the Unborn, Lord Shiva had taken many avatars, but he had never experienced childhood and mother's love. However, post his marriage with Devi Parvati, Mahadev takes the form of a child to fulfil Devi Parvati's wish and becomes the dutiful son of Mahasati Anusuya. 

Produced by Zee Studios, Baal Shiv features a stellar cast including Aan Tiwari ( as Baal Shiv), Mouli Ganguly (as Mahasati Anusuya), Siddharth Arora (as Mahadev), Shivya Pathania ( as Devi Parvati), Krrip Kapur Suri (as Asur Andhak), Praneet Bhatt (as Narad Muni), Danish Akhtar Saifi (as Nandi), Dakssh Ajit Singh (as Indra), Anjita Poonia (as Indrani), Ravi Khanvilkar (as Archarya Dandpani), Pallavi Pradhan (as Maina Devi), amongst others. 

Shivya Pathania has established a special place in the hearts of millions of fans of Indian television shows with her mythological  characters in Radhakrishn and Ram Siya Ke Luv Kush.

A former Miss Shimla, Shiva Pathania  debuted in television with the show Humsafars.

She played the role of Aarzoo Sheikh Mahajan in the  show  opposite Harshad Chopda.

Later she played a  romantic character  Zara Khan in episodic series Yeh Hai Aashiqui on Bindaas. He portrayal of Sanchi Mittal in Sony TV's Ek Rishta Sajhedari grabbed eyeballs.

 She came into limelight with the character of Radha in Radhakrishn on Star Bharat.  Later,  she portrayed Sita in Colors TV's Ram Siya Ke Luv Kush .
