<p>Model-actress Pallavi Subhash says donning the role of a mother in the new historical show Chakravartin Ashoka Samrat was not an easy call for her.<br /><br />The 30-year-old actress, who is playing a protective mother of emperor Ashoka on the show, said she was sceptical to take up the character as it needed high emotions.<br /><br />“I was apprehensive initially about the role. I am playing something like this for the first time. It is very tricky because if you do overacting to bring your emotions, you will be easily caught,” Subhash told PTI.<br /><br />The actress credited her reel son Siddharth Nigam (playing Ashoka) for bringing out the right emotions.</p>.<p>“I feel Siddharth made my role easy. The child is a brilliant actor and has a better future. I am actually blessed to have an on-screen son like him who gave me a conviction to play a mother,” she said.<br /><br />The Marathi-actress, who was last seen in a guest appearance in mythological show Mahabharat, said she found it tough to master the language. “The only flaw I had was <br />to speak the language. I am not very good with pure Hindi which has many Sanskrit words. I played a cameo in Mahabharat and it was just three-four scenes,” she said.<br />Subhash, who started her journey from Marathi theatre, made a mark in telly world with Ekta Kapoor’s show Karam Apnaa Apnaa followed by Kasamh Se. She took a break from TV to do Marathi films.<br /><br />Asked if she is choosy about her roles, Subhash, who is returning to a full-fledged role in Hindi TV industry after a long time, said, “Being a Marathi I started off my career in the regional medium but when I got the opportunity to be a part of Hindi TV soaps, I shifted my base completely. I worked here for five-six years where I played lead in most of my shows. Since I was getting similar roles, I thought I should start doing something else.”She has also made a debut in southern film industry and will be seen in Gautham Menon’s next untitled project. <br /></p>
