Even if I’ve played a bahu, it has been an unconventional one: Shveta Salve

TV actor Shveta Salve says she has been careful about choosing her work, as she needs to be convinced about what she’s doing.

Shveta Salve, who has been part of serials such as Hip Hip Hurray and Kaahin Kissi Roz, was last seen on the small screen in 2015 in Ek Tha Chander Ek Thi Sudha. The actor delivered a baby girl on August 11, and plans to return to work soon.

Shveta Salve says she has always been part of “progressive” shows.

Ask her if she feels that competition on TV has increased over the years, and she says, “There has always been competition. Of course, when I started out, it wasn’t as strong. But if you are good at your work, people will call you. So, whenever I get a good opportunity, I jump at it. I love my work.”
