Shriya Pilgaonkar is enjoying the positive feedback to her web show, The Broken News 2. The second season of the series was released on May 3, on ZEE5. In this newsroom drama, Shriya essays the role of journalist Radha Bhargava. The first season ended with Shriya's character being labelled as anti-national and terrorist. And that's the reason she is back with vengeance in The Broken News 2. In a recent interview, Shriya spoke about her character's transformation in the series.
Shriya Pilgaonkar on Radha in The Broken News 2
Speaking with ETimes, Shriya Pilgaonkar said Radha was a journalist with very strong work ethics and values. But after she was wrongly framed as a terrorist and anit-national, her only motto is to take down Dipankar Sanyal in The Broken News 2. Jaideep Ahlawat plays the role of Dipankar in the show.
"So, for her, it's no longer just about her larger goal; we see that somewhere she's not able to control herself. She is very aggressive right now, making certain choices that you will see in Season 2, which are very uncharacteristic of the Radha we have seen before in S01. This is just a result of anger and feeling betrayed," she told the entertainment portal.
