Tu Sooraj Main Saanjh Piyaji on STAR Plus recently witnessed an outdoor shoot in Bangkok. While the show is taking an interesting turn, the audience will get to see all our characters in different avatars in the show.

 Sadiya Siddiqui, who can be seen draped in traditional saris in Tu Sooraj Main Saanjh Piyaji, is all set to sport a hep look in the upcoming episodes. Not just that, for the first time, she will be seen wearing a swimsuit! For the scenes, the actress maintained a strict diet and worked out rigorously to get in shape. “When you wear a sari, your problem areas are camouflaged, but to don a swimsuit, one has to be in good shape. When I was told that I would be wearing a swimsuit, I hit the gym and worked out hard. I also corrected my diet and ate non-fattening stuff. But I told the producer that I am not Sunny Leone, and there have to be some restrictions,” Sadiya laughs.

The actress, who has done some of the popular shows early in her career, has never shied away from bold looks or scenes in serials. “Banegi Apni Baat was the first serial to have a kissing scene and was way ahead of its time. I wore ultra-modern clothes in it. It’s only in recent serials that I have gone traditional,” she points out and is happy to sport modern clothes in her show now. “I don’t know the reason for the transformation, but my character will move from being traditional to modern probably so that viewers can relate to it more,” she says.
