COLORS Gujarati brings you a heartwarming new show ‘United State of Gujarat’, celebrating the power of relationships and family bonds. The show reunites the iconic duo, Ragini Shah and Apara Mehta, who shares a special on-screen and off-screen chemistry. These seasoned actresses, who share a rich history of not only professional but also personal friendship, are seen gracing the screen together once more while giving the audiences another reason to be glued to their screens and the show.
Ragini Shah and Apara Mehta have long been celebrated figures in the world of entertainment. Their chemistry and camaraderie have previously lit up numerous shows. Their on-screen partnership in United State of Gujarat reflects their offscreen equation which is nothing less than a testament to their deep-rooted friendship.
In the show, Ragini Shah plays Suryakanta Vaishnav, a strong-willed family matriarch dedicated to upholding tradition and managing the family business. Apara Mehta portrays Indira Rangwala, Suryakanta’s loyal childhood friend who stands by her through all challenges, embodying steadfast support and friendship. Moreover, the show boasts of a stellar cast with Raj Anadkat as Keshav, Sana Amin Sheikh as Kay and Vandana Vithalani and Chayya.
Speaking about her role and the reunion with Apara Mehta, Ragini Shah shared, “Working with Apara is always a joyous experience. We have known each other for many years and that is surely reflecting through our characters in the show. It wouldn’t be wrong to say that the relationship and friendship seen on screen is a mirror image of our unique offscreen bond. ‘United State of Gujarat’ is a special project for us because it blends rich Gujarati culture and what’s better than showcasing your own culture on the screen.“
Apara Mehta echoed the sentiment, saying, “Ragini ben and I have been family friends from a very long time and share a beautiful friendship since our theatre days. While shooting for United State of Gujarat, it does not feel like we are acting, it feels real and comes naturally to us and it’s wonderful to be working with her again after so many years. She is an excellent actor and I am always in awe of her. This show is not just another project; it’s a journey that brings out the essence of our culture and the strength of familial bonds. I’m thrilled for the audience to see what we have created.”
