Rubina Dilaik to return as Saumya in Shakti - Astitva Ke Ehsaas Ki

Rubina Dilaik

Bigg Boss 14 winner Rubina Dilaik returns to play Saumya in Shakti - Astitva Ke Ehsaas Ki. Her transgender character appears more confident as the show takes a new turn. In December 2019, Dilaik had quit the show after being a part of it for four years. A generation leap, and the introduction of new characters had left her with little to do. Now, her re-entry has made the makers provide another twist in the tale.

Shakti… Astitva Ke Ehsaas Kii has been instrumental in breaking stereotypes by beautifully showcasing the life of a transgender(Kinnar) through Saumya's story. The show since its launch touched upon many aspects including societal acceptance, inclusivity, biases and others that Saumya fought against. The show recently took a leap and revolved around Heer's life as she went through similar trials and tribulations as she embraced her identity. Rubina Dilaik, who beautifully portrayed the character of Saumya and breathed life into it is now set to return to the show as it takes a new turn. Donning a more powerful avatar, Saumya will set out on a new journey by being more confident of her identity and her place in society.

Rubina Dilaik as Soumya in Shakti

Talking about her return, Rubina Dilaik said, "Shakti…Astitva Ke Ehsaas Kii has been one of the pathbreaking shows on television that very aesthetically portrayed the story of a Kinnar and showcased the lesser-known side of the community. It has been a fantastic journey and I have always been thrilled with the love and appreciation the viewers showered on it. After a hiatus, I am very excited to be back on the show as Saumya, with a renewed spirit, new power, and determination. It feels like a homecoming and I am looking forward to reuniting with the cast and moreover to this incredible new phase of the show."
