Mumbai, April 28 (NationPress) Actor Rajesh Jais makes his much-anticipated return to television after a lengthy absence of 13 years with Zee TV’s latest drama, 'Vasudha'.
In this series, Jais takes on the role of Surya Singh Rathod, a principled and morally upright man in a village, whose life is centered around his daughter, Divya.
With a character as strong and ethical as Surya, viewers can expect a significant and dramatic twist in 'Vasudha'.
For Jais, portraying characters like Surya is what makes acting a rewarding and creatively enriching experience.
"After nearly 13 years away from television, returning has been profoundly gratifying. I have always respected Arvind Babbal's storytelling style and discipline, having collaborated with him on both a film and a series. Thus, when I was presented with the role of Surya Singh Rathod in 'Vasudha', it felt like a golden opportunity. Surya isn’t merely a father—he embodies loyalty, loss, and strong values. The challenge of portraying someone with such emotional depth, who strives to do what’s best for his daughter, is both difficult and fulfilling. It’s roles like these that actors yearn for," Jais shared.
Reflecting on his filming experience, he continued, "Filming outdoors in Samod near Jaipur infused a refreshing vibe, and I relished adopting a new appearance and identity. Watching the final episodes evokes memories of my earlier days in television—it’s both nostalgic and rewarding. The creative team deserves immense credit for achieving such intricate storytelling under tight deadlines. The teamwork among the 'Vasudha' cast and director is akin to that of commandos—focused, precise, and passionate. Their commitment is commendable."
As Jais enjoys his role in 'Vasudha', it will be intriguing to see if Surya can accept Avinash after discovering that the young man his daughter loves is the son of those who once betrayed his trust. Can Vasudha persuade Surya?
