Rashami Desai set for TV return with upcoming show 'Sayoneee', says she rejected several offers over years

Rashami Desai set for TV return with upcoming show 'Sayoneee', says she rejected several offers over years

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], September 16 (ANI): Actress Rashami Desai is all set to make a comeback on television after a gap of nearly eight years. 
The 'Uttaran' star will be next seen in the upcoming TV show 'Sayoneee', where she will be seen in the character of Maya. 
Speaking on the same, Rashami revealed that she decided to return to the small screen after finding a story and character that she felt connected with. She also spoke about having rejected several offers over the years. 
"I wasn’t looking for a comeback on television but for a purpose. As an artist, we get a number of opportunities, but it’s not necessary to just be visible, work and earn money. You should do something that people remember you for, and that’s what I am known for. Sayoneee has that spark. I feel the story is bigger than the artists themselves," Rashami said. 
"Maya is not just a character or an imagination. She is a very practical character that I am going to play in Sayoneee. And as an actor, I wouldn’t deny that I received many offers, but I turned them down because I didn’t feel connected to the stories or the characters that were coming my way. Every artist wants to play a character that is beautifully written," she further said about the character.
