Gurdip Punjj will be seen in a new show Humkadam that will be aired on the brand new TV channel-Ishara. It will be available from March 1. We had a telephonic interview with Gurdip to know about the show, her role and a lot more. This is Gurdip’s first show after the lockdown. She is playing the role of a mother-in-law. Gurdip said that the show is not about the typical saas-bahu shows on television. It’s about their relationship-how it gets stronger with each passing day and both grow extremely protective of each other.

When asked why she chose the show, Gurdip said, “The kind of work television keeps offering is very mundane. Through this show, I get to tell a new story with a progressive mindset. The show is made with a very good thought.  The relationship is portrayed in a bitter way on television. But, we are trying to change this mindset through our show. That’s why I opted for it”.

Gurdip Punjj is much younger to play the role of a mother-in-law on screen. Reacting to this, she said, “I have been in the industry for almost 19 years. If I think I will be getting romantic tracks and romance with a hero of a young age, that won’t happen. It is important to work age-appropriate. For me doing a mother role is not a problem, because I am already a mother in real life. Playing a mother-in-law, of course, puts me in a different bracket but the kind of story that I am doing that really matters to me. I have no qualms playing a mother-in-law who has a story to tell. She should be important to the story and in Humkadam, I am playing the lead of the story. So, I don’t mind playing the lead where I have much more to do than just to be a prop mother somewhere standing behind.”
