chhath puja 2024: Actress Sneha Wagh is currently seen in the role of Chhathi Maiya in Sun Neo's show Chhathi Maiya Ki Bitiya. Devoleena Bhattacharjee was earlier in this role, but due to pregnancy she had to say goodbye to the show. Sneha Wagh talks to Urmila Kori on this show and her association with Chhathi Maiya.
My dream was to play the role of Devi.
I have done many costume drama shows till now, but this is the first time I am playing the role of a goddess. I have been a part of television for a long time, so I also had a dream to play the role of a goddess on screen. When I was offered the role of Devi Chhathi Maiya in the show Chhathi Maiya Ki Bitiya, I immediately said yes. Finally, after many years, my dream of becoming an onscreen goddess has been fulfilled.
It takes one and a half to two hours to prepare
As everyone knows that I have done costume dramas, in which I wore heavy costumes and also did a lot of make-up, but the experience of shooting this serial and coming in the avatar of Chhathi Maiya is quite different. The saree and the tilak on the forehead give me a very supernatural experience. Everything looks beautiful. It takes me one and a half to two hours to get ready.
I am already virtuous
Generally, actors have to adopt a very virtuous lifestyle while playing the roles of gods and goddesses. The good thing with me is that I am already Satvik because I am a Krishna devotee. I have also taken initiation, so there was sattvikta in my lifestyle even before this show.
I myself messaged Devoleena
I would like to tell that when I was offered this show, I definitely messaged Devoleena that I have been offered the show. He said that you must do this show. Every actor has his own way of doing every character. Devoleena had her own way. I have my own. I believe that Devoleena had done her job very well. Now it is my responsibility to play the role of Chhathi Maiya very well.
The feeling of motherly love makes Chhathi Maiya special.
We all know that every goddess has a feeling of motherly love. While doing this serial, I learned that motherly feeling. She is very strong in Chhathi Maiya. This is the reason why worshiping him in Purvanchal leads to the birth of a child. These folk tales are also very popular. This goddess is directly associated with children. A mother also observes Chhathi Maiya fast for the safety of her children.
I am taking Chhathi Maiya's Siddhi to every home.
I knew the name of Chhathi Maiya but I did not know much about her. After joining the show, I came to know about it in detail. As soon as I was offered the show, I also searched about it on Google, but there was nothing much there. The director and creative team of my serial guided me very well. I am very happy that I got associated with this show, which is bringing the Siddhi of Chhathi Maiya to every home.
Felt the devotion of the people during the shooting
Being a Maharashtrian, I and my family had never celebrated Chhath Puja, but through the show I am feeling people's devotion and emotions towards this festival. Recently, when Chhath Puja scenes were shot, I saw it very closely. That was going to touch my heart. There is a special kind of love in the preparation of Prasad. Which is heart touching. During the shooting, I also thought that if I am feeling this way during the shoot, then how divine the experience will be if I see this festival in real life. If I get a chance, I would like to go to Bihar and participate in Chhath festival. I would like to be involved in everything from going to the ghat to making prasad.
