Mumbai, Dec 29 (IANS): 'Baalveer Returns' actress Bhaweeka Chaudhary, who will be seen playing the role of a strong and glamorous girl in the new show 'Maitree', spoke about getting a role similar to Geet in 'Jab We Met,' and how the lead actress Shrenu Parikh made her comfortable on the sets.

I just hope the audience will shower their love and support and accept me in this new character."
