Mumbai, Feb 5 (IANS) Actress Surbhi Chandna will be seen playing a double role in an upcoming track of TV show "Ishqbaaaz". She says it will bring comic relief.
As per the current track, viewers will see a twist of events wherein Shivaay Singh Oberoi (Nakuul Mehta) will be seen shooting Annika Oberoi (Surbhi) with a gun. But that is not the end.
The makers of the Star Plus show have decided to introduce Annika's lookalike.
"The initial phase of Annika has always been my favourite when she was elegant yet had a lot of quirky traits. Over time, Annika has now become more poised, more so after her marriage with Shivaay," Surbhi said in a statement.
"And now, this lookalike will be the complete opposite of What Annika has been. You can say she will be highly inspired by Aishwarya Rai's character from 'Josh', but a more fun and comic touch to it," she added.

Comedian Rajeev Nigam, who will be seen in the lead role in "Har Shaakh Pe Ullu Baithaa Hai", says he always dreamt of having his own show in the fiction space.
"A lot of years went by performing on comedy reality shows and people kept asking me when I would have my own show like the other comedians on the small screen. Since these comedians have established themselves in the non-fiction space, I always dreamt of having my own show in the fiction space to be different from the rest," Rajeev said in a statement.
"This show is my way of saying that I am back on television with my show and hope you guys shower me with appreciation," he added.
"Har Shaakh Pe Ullu Baithaa Hai" is about a corrupt and funny politician Chaitu Lal in his madcap world. The makers are claiming that the show will bring out the "harsh reality of how few politicians today make promises to the common man and never deliver".
The show will air on Star Plus.
