Actress Amrapali Gupta, popular for portraying negative characters in TV shows like Qubool Hai and Ishqbaaaz, will turn evil for Vish Ya Amrit: Sitara. "I'm excited about playing a 'vishkanya' in the show. I was looking for playing something positive on-screen, but I'm often offered roles that are either negative or grey. Finally, I found a character that was challenging and strong so, I took it, up" Amrapali said in a statement.

Even though she gets hate mails at times for being a troublemaker on-screen, she doesn't mind playing such roles.
