Mumbai: Some characters in Indian television leave a lasting impact—be it their iconic style, cunning ways, or memorable dialogues. One such unforgettable character is Komolika, played by Urvashi Dholakia, who redefined the on-screen vamp with her glamorous and bold persona. Now, actress Ishita Ganguly is stepping into the spotlight with a character that promises to rival such legends. As Chamkeeli in Shemaroo Umang’s Badi Haveli Ki Chhoti Thakurain, Ishita is ready to set the screen on fire with her fierce and mesmerizing presence.
Chamkeeli is not an ordinary character. With her striking scorpion tattoo, bold earrings, ring on her lips, and dazzling maangtika, she demands attention. Ishita herself is thrilled about playing this role, she said, “Chamkeeli is bold, fierce, and unapologetic. She believes every ruthless action she takes is justified to achieve her goals. I drew inspiration from Urvashi Dholakia’s Komolika, who made vamps glamorous and iconic. While Komolika is a benchmark, I’m hopeful that Chamkeeli will leave her own mark. Her look, her personality, and her dialogue ‘Chamkeeli jab chamake hai na, tab ache ache ka bulbva fuse ho jaave hai’ make her fun to play. From her mangtika to her tattoo, every detail of her look has me excited—the stylist and the makeup team have done a fabulous job!”
For Ishita, Chamkeeli’s look and persona have been a unique experience. “I’ve done many shows before, but none of them excited me as much as this. Everything about Chamkeeli, from her appearance to her personality, is fascinating. Even the makeup room is fun because the process of getting into Chamkeeli’s look is a whole vibe!”
At the core of Badi Haveli Ki Chhoti Thakurain is the intense rivalry between Chamkeeli and Chaina for the haveli’s legacy. While Chaina fights for justice and tradition, Chamkeeli uses cunning and manipulation to achieve her goals. This clash of right versus wrong creates a rollercoaster of drama, emotions, and shocking twists that will leave audiences hooked.
