Upasana Singh has become a household name with her character, Pinki bua, on Comedy Nights With Kapil will soon be seen as a mother of two sons in Nadaniyaan Season 2 on Big Magic.
The sitcom that became quite popular in its first season, has taken a six year leap in the second season. While the three nadans — Nandu, Chandu and Pappu, remain an integral part of the show, Tinku – Nandu and Pappu’s mother (Upasana), is a new addition.
Upasana says that as an actor she has done various roles and has even won awards for portraying negative characters, but comedy is where her heart lies. “I love doing comedy shows. There’s nothing more gratifying than making someone laugh in today’s time when everybody is grappling with some issue or the other,” says the actor, who was last seen as buaji in Bani…Ishq Da Kalma.
The actor is happy that her character doesn’t require her to sport an over-the-top look. “I play a simple, ordinary woman-next-door, no big bindi or heavy make-up,” she remarks.
