For Sonakshi Batra , portraying the titular role in Jagadhatri has been an emotional and creative journey. The actor reveals that she spent a lot of time studying her character’s inner and outer worlds to bring authenticity to her performance.

“I spent a lot of time understanding her emotional graph — why she behaves the way she does, what drives her, and where her strength truly comes from,” Sonakshi shares.

She also worked extensively on her body language to distinguish between Jagadhatri’s two sides. “When she’s at work, she’s confident and assertive; her body language and energy change completely. But when she’s at home, she’s softer, her tone lowers, and she occupies less space — it’s a beautiful shift,” she explains.

According to her, the show celebrates the everyday strength of women. “Sometimes when someone doubts you, you have to show them what you’re made of. But often, we ourselves forget our own power — self-belief is where strength really begins.”

Talking about her experience, Sonakshi adds, “The energy on set is so positive. Everyone is passionate and supportive — from my co-actors to the crew. Working with Rahul Kumar Tewary sir has been creatively fulfilling; he’s always available for his actors and encourages us to give our best.”

She concludes, “Jagadhatri reminds us that true power isn’t always loud — sometimes, it’s found in silence, patience, and grace.”
