Mumbai, Feb 15 (NationPress) Zee TV's newly premiered series "Jamai No. 1" is gearing up to enthrall viewers with an exciting twist. Neel (Abhishek Malik) ties the knot with Riddhi (Simaran Kaur) and takes on the role of ghar jamai at the Chotwani residence.
The upcoming episodes will showcase Neel's muh-dikhai ceremony, where Kanchan throws down a challenge for Neel to don a saree in a bid to humiliate him. To everyone's surprise, Neel dazzles in the red saree, which he styles into a captivating dhoti look. Abhishek Malik, portraying Neel, expressed his enthusiasm for this distinctive scene.
The actor described the saree-to-dhoti transition as an empowering moment that reflects Neel's inherent self-assurance. While discussing the episode, Abhishek shared, “This was a completely novel experience for me. I never thought I would wear a red saree—let alone fashion it into a dhoti for a muh-dikhai ceremony! While preparing, I found myself laughing at how this challenge unfolded, but once I saw the final look, I was blown away. Honestly, it felt fantastic to explore something so different on Indian TV. It was a delightful experience, from my early mishaps in draping to the laughter shared on set. Ultimately, the saree-turned-dhoti was a refreshing change. Portraying a character like Neel allows me to embrace challenges, and I cherish every moment. I can’t wait to see how the audience responds because this quirky scene is bound to leave a mark!”
