Supriya Pathak On Playing Hansa In Khichdi, 'I Wish I Had A Part Of Her In Me For Real'
Supriya Pathak talks about playing Hansa in Khichdi and what it means to her.
After 12 years, one of our favourite shows, Khichdi is all set to make a comeback. Hansa is not just one of our favourite characters but Supriya Pathak, too, loves playing the role of Hansa. In an interview with Indian Express, Supriya expressed what she feels now that one of the cult shows is coming back, "We all have been telling JD and Aatish (makers of Khichdi) to get it back for the longest of time. And when we got to know that the channel has approved and we are rolling, our happiness knew no bounds. We were not sure but definitely very happy when we got that kind of response. Khichdi is a show that runs on the innocence of all its characters, and I think that really worked for us."
When asked if she ever found Hansa's character stupid, Supriya smiled and said, "I love Hansa, yes I know she is foolish and we have worked her that way but I love enacting the role. I think I am happiest playing Hansa. It was strange to get back to it so seamlessly. But honestly, I enjoy doing the role, and I know I will miss her once we wrap up shoot. I feel Hansa’s ghost has captured me well and it is going to be the same always. I really wish I had a part of Hansa in me for real."

Supriya also promises that the new series will also entertain the current generation. She adds, "We have definitely taken that into consideration and given a freshness to the story. But personally, I feel that people are happy with the characters and would relate to it in any case. Our earlier audience would love watching Khichdi once again, and the newer generation would also like it, for now they enjoy such madness having being introduced to stand-up comedies and other humour based shows."
