After playing herself in reality shows like `Welcome - Baazi Mehmaan-Nawaazi Ki`, `Bigg Boss 3` and `Fear Factor - Khatron Ke Khiladi`, Aditi Gowitrikar is making an acting comeback on the small screen with mythological show `Suryaputra Karn`. The actress is `excited` about it as she likes taking up challenges.

Aditi, who was last seen acting in the fiction show `Ye Meri Life Hai` in 2005, will be seen as Ganga in `Suryaputra Karn`.

`This is my first mythological show and I'm very excited. Initially I used to think that mythological shows are not my cup of tea, but I love taking challenges. The role is very interesting,` Aditi said in a statement.

`In many ways, the role of Ganga is very much similar to how I am in real life. Also, my association with the channel goes back a long way,` she added.

Aditi's look in the show is completely different from the ones she has donned before. Being a period drama, it's a challenge for her to get into the character.

`It takes approximately three hours to get into the look of Ganga. The entire look is royal with a lot of drapes and intricate jewellery,` Aditi said.

Apart from Aditi, `Suryaputra Karn`, which is aired on Sony Entertainment Television, also stars Aditya Redij, Mouli Ganguly and Anand Suryavanshi.
