Shruti Bhist, playing the role of Mishri in COLORS’ ‘Mishri’, shares, “When I found out about the wedding scene while filming in Mathura, I was thrilled. It’s my first time being a bride on screen, and I was a mix of nervous and excited about enlivening the wedding sequence. The whole experience of preparing for this scene was amazing. My team and I went shopping in the local market to find the perfect wedding dress that really captures the spirit of Mathura. We chose a stunning red saree with intricate gotapati work all over and a beautiful gold border. The jewelry is also special – it’s all handmade by local craftsmen, with unique designs. I really hope our viewers will love how I look as a bride and enjoy watching the wedding story unfold. We’ve all worked hard on this show, and I’m looking forward to seeing how our audience reacts to it.”
