Mumbai: Actor Jennifer Winget is excited to play the role of an Army officer in her first web show. She says when actors portray this kind of a character, there comes a lot of responsibilities with it.

"I am really excited to be playing the role of an Army officer. When you portray such a character, there comes a lot of responsibility with it."

"Realising how interesting this challenge would be, is the very reason why I took it up," Jennifer said in a statement.

"Playing Monica is no easy feat, as she being part of the Army required me to work on my fitness as there are a lot of action-packed scenes in the series. Monica is very passionate, she's the first card-holder, candle-carrier, dog-rescuer, hand-holder on the spot when required," she added.

Jennifer, being the Television star, had earlier worked with producer Ekta Kapoor's Balaji Telefilms in the 2000s serial 'Kasautii Zindagii Kay'.
