Jennifer Winget is currently receiving laurels for her turn as Anushka in the show Raisinghani v/s Raisinghani. Besides exploring lawyers’ world, the show also showcases a toxic relationship between Karan Wahi‘s Virat and Jennifer’s Anushka. In an interview with indianexpress.com, Jennifer and Karan spoke about the toxicity that exists in relationships today.

Jennifer said, “For me, lying is a big red flag in a relationship. In the show, Anushka keeps going back to Virat and that is her toxic nature, not his. Because she keeps going back, he thinks it is allowed. When she stops, he will stop. This kind of situationships are true, it happens now, and certain people keep going back, so they need to stop that.”

Sharing his take on relationships, Karan said, “Today, partnerships should be based on trust and most importantly for me, on equality and equity. There is a big difference that people don’t know about. Usually in relationships, we always tag the man to be toxic, but in real life, there is a reason for everyone to be the way they are.”

Jennifer Winget also spoke about choosing empowering roles in her shows and said, “Every show that I have done has given me a feeling of empowerment. Acting is what I do for a living. I know this. It is my bread and butter, so whatever achievements I have had, have been through this form. Every character I have played, I have learned a lot. It has helped me grow as a human being also. It also taught me things that I shouldn’t be doing. Fortunately for me, I am a very strong, independent, dynamic, and bright middle-aged woman.”

The actor concluded, “When we do shows, the script changes according to the audience. But when it comes to selecting projects, I choose them based on what I want to do. For me the story always tops it, it is my first and foremost criterion in selecting a project. The character matters too, but everything else comes much later. It has always been like that and by the grace of God it has worked for me so far. I hope it continues to till the very last day of my life.”

Raisinghani vs Raisinghani also stars Reem Shaikh. It streams from Monday to Wednesday on SonyLIV.
