Mumbai, Oct 23 (IANS) Actress Jyoti Gauba has been roped in to play Queen Shubra, who is the mother of Uruvi, portrayed by actress Tejasswi Prakash in the show "KarnSangini".

"I said 'yes' to this role because initially she is portrayed as a caring mother and later, we will see a possessive side of her which is really interesting," Jyoti said in a statement.

"Playing Uruvi's mother is a lot of fun as Tejasswi is a cute girl on set whom I like to take care of," she added.

Jyoti has featured in shows like "CID", "Ek Hasina Thi" and "Kavach... Kaali Shaktiyon Se".
