I am the modern version of Kunti: Shafaq Naaz

Shafaq Naaz who plays Kunti in Siddharth Kumar Tewary's Mahabharat speaks about Mahabharat and her role of Kunti.

How do you feel getting into the attire of Kunti?
It's a great feeling, I feel like a princess dressed like Kunti. It's so different to dress up like her, the attire is so unlike the regular saas-bahu dress ups. I'm enjoying it. I also relate to her 50%. I'm like the modern version of her, the emotional aspect, patience and understanding is just so similar.
How is it to shoot with young children and playing their mother? It's a different feeling, my teenage kids are adorable and it's fun shooting with them, the grown up ones are older than me so it gradually got comfortable with them and now we bond.
Anything interesting from the set? Yes, it's just a funny one, we all avoid talking to each other and looking before our shoots or we burst out laughing and have to do many retakes.
How is it working with producer Siddharth Kumar Tewary? He is a good producer. He is a creative person and has clarity of thought and vision.
With whom you bond the most? I bond with the onscreen Yudishtir and Sahadev the most. Both are quite chilled out.
What do you feel about the idea of gurukul system of education? I think it's a fantastic idea, when kids are home they are more comfortable and are laid back about their approach to learning and gurukul is perfect to inculcate discipline.
What, according to you is the importance of education? Education is undoubtedly important and with so much competition around you in each field, education is a must to fall back on and be strong.
