Television actress Nausheen Ali Sardar, playing a character with "grey shades" in the supernatural thriller "Kaalchakra" that begins telecast Friday, says she is looking forward to see how her fans will react to her new role.

Known best for her lead role in the tele-serial "Kkusum", Nausheen will act as daughter, wife and mother in "Kaalchakra". The serial is a remake of a Mexican soap "La Opala". The currently popular serial, "Jassi Jaisi Koi Nahin", is also a remake of Columbian soap "Yo Soy Betty La Fea".

The actress, who has been missing from the small screen for some time, has shed the extra kilos she had put on and is back to her trim self. She is often seen with her friend, actor Vikas Kalantri. Both have been seeing each other for a long time now.

Nausheen is excited about her role in "Kaalchakra". "It's really a challenging role because I am playing the mother of twins. So there is plenty of scope for me to perform as all three characters are different entities."

"Since, this is the first time that I am going to play a character with grey shades, I am really excited and looking forward to see how my fans will react!"

Nausheen left "Kkusum" when the serial took a 20-year leap and she was made to act as mother to an 18-year-old daughter. In "Kaalchakra", Nausheen dons the motherly role for a short span before the twins take centre stage in the serial.

The spirited actress has also featured in a Pakistani serial "Ana" with Humayun Saayeed, which will be aired simultaneously in India and Pakistan.

"The serial is ready now and about to be released in Pakistan. Humayun Saeed from Pakistan, who has produced this serial and even acted opposite me, is a great human being. He has done a wonderful job by combining the talents from India and Pakistan," Nausheen added.

Asked what made her leave "Kkusum", which was so popular, Nausheen smiled and said: "An actor should always try to change his or her image all the time. I couldn't relate to playing mother to an 18-year-old girl. 'Ana' and 'Kaalchakra' have both offered me a lot in terms of performance for an actress. And I guess, I am like all other human beings who want to excel in life!"

While Nausheen has showcased her talent enough through ads (modelling from the age of 16), music videos (remember the "Pehle to kabhi kabhi" Altaf Raja video) and serials, what she's looking forward to is some "great films".

"I think filmmakers are wary about casting me because they wonder if I have the time at all since I'm busy with TV. Since 'Kaalchakra' is a weekly show, I have time on hand, so yes, I want to do films."
