Mansi Srivastava

Telly Tattle: New bad girl on the tube

Mansi Srivastava is pleased to add a new twist in the tale of the television show, Main Hoon Saath Tere, with her grey character. She plays Raina, the youngest daughter of the Bundela family, who is ambitious and will let nothing come in the way of her goals. That includes preventing step-brother Aryaman (Karan Vora) from inheriting any part of the Bundela family property. “Raina will keep the audience on the edge of their seats with her wickedness,” Mansi promises. Her character sports a sharp and classy look with her straight, silky hair and designer sarees.  The actor adds, “Raina acts very entitled, and as Aryaman is her step-brother, she feels he doesn’t deserve any of the inheritance. She is vile and can go to any lengths to fulfill her needs.”

First my brother passed away around two years back, then the entire fiasco around Taarak Mehta exit, and now my sister. She was closest to me, and it was also because of a lack of funds that we could not provide her better facilities. But I believe in the journey of soul and it was maybe her time to leave. My mother is really affected and we are trying to be there for each other."           View this post on Instagram                       A post shared by Jennifer Mistry Bansiwal🧚‍♀️♾ (@jennifer_mistry_bansiwal) As per Times Now, Dimple faced low blood pressure issues and had gallbladder stones leading to immense difficulty in her health.

Dimple showed signs of improvement after a couple of days but she went on to develop breathing difficulties and her health deteriorated. Despite the efforts of the medical staff, she could not be saved and breathed her last on April 13, after spending 10 days at the government hospital.  Earlier, Jennifer had lost her brother, who was also kept on a ventilator.  Meanwhile, Jennifer, who played the role of Roshan Sodhi in 'TMKOC' won the case of sexual harassment and non-payment of dues against Modi. She had filed an FIR against the producer last year. Modi termed the allegations made against him baseless and claimed to take legal action against the actress for trying to defame him. The verdict of the case came out in February and it was pronounced in favour of Jennifer. As per reports, Modi was to clear Jennifer's outstanding dues and also pay an additional Rs 5 lakh to her as compensation.  'Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah’ is based on the weekly column Duniya Ne Undha Chasma by Tarak Mehta in Chitralekha magazine.
