MUMBAI : Actress Shivangi Joshi is excited to play two characters with different personalities in the show "Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai". The show is back after a three-month hiatus.

While the viewers loved Shivangi as Naira, a traditional daughter-in-law in the project, she will now also show her stylish and vivacious avatar as Tina.

"This is the first time I will be playing a dual role on television. While I continue playing Naira, the storyline will introduce Naira's twin Tina in the show. Although, it's Naira only playing the dual character of Tina as well. Tina is the modern version of Naira. Her thoughts are different from Naira but both the characters have a singular role towards the betterment of the family," said Shivangi.

"I am happy to play both these characters as the concept is fresh and I am sure the viewers will like our story. Also, it has been three months since we stopped shooting so now it is like, I am getting an opportunity to portray two roles at one go," she added.
