The most feared on Indian television - Timnasa is all set to make a fierce comeback on Sony SAB's Baalveer Returns. Pavitra Punia's re-entry as the Bhayrani Timnasa makes the already intriguing storyline more intense than ever. Pavitra received immense appreciation and love for her dynamic and nerve chilling role as the powerful and vengeful Timnasa and curtains will unfold soon on what she's got in store. 


The queen of Kaal Lok – Timnasa aka Pavitra Punia is delighted to return to the show Baalveer Returns and portrays a character that is extremely close to her heart. She said, "Timnasa has been one of my most impactful roles so far. I have thoroughly enjoyed being her. Coming back to the crew and my co-stars are wonderful, and I was overwhelmed with everyone's response on my return. While it was a wave of happiness to be back, I was a little nervous and in front of the camera. It's been more than 100 days since I have heard those magical words - lights, camera, and action."

Sharing about the first reaction of the cast and crew, Pavitra said, “Everyone was jumping with joy. They just couldn’t carry me on their shoulders to shout HIP HIP HOORAY! Other than that everyone was waiting since I was in Bigg Boss for three months and now that I have returned, everyone is happy and they are charged upon delivering double energy to the show. The cast and the crew, everyone is very happy.”

While narrating her first day back on the shoot, she said, “My costume is elaborate and heavy and I returned on the sets after three months. The very first day when I wore this dress, I got a severe headache, was feeling breathless and trapped inside something so heavy. I just wanted to get back to my casual clothes. I was taking several re-takes and it took me a whole day to get back into Timnasa’s skin. It was indeed very difficult and challenging for me.”

Talking about the stark difference she felt between fiction shows and reality TV, she said, “Reality TV, as they say is all about being real, whoever you are in reality. You have to forget about the camera, there is no ACTION or CUT, no lights that you have to face. There is a very huge difference when you have live cameras around. While on the sets, the action, cut, roll and reel cameras are the reality for us here. So, I just can’t compare both of them. I will say reality TV is easier than this reel shooting, being on screen camera, getting into someone else’s character with expressions that you have to express is difficult. On real cameras, you don’t need to think before you express or say anything, you just be the way you are but on reel cameras, it’s all about expression, body language, and your costume with lots of cuts in between the shots. So, I think the reel world is a lot tougher than the real world."
