Paige Sandhu has addressed the prospect of a future return as Emmerdale’s evil Meena Jutla and her next step in her career.
Earlier this year, Paige, 25, bowed out from playing Emmerdale killer Meena - who bumped off many village favourites. Many fans had hoped to see her return as part of Emmerdale’s 50th anniversary celebrations although she’s yet to appear.
This doesn’t look likely either following a report from Digital Spy. Likely disappointing fans, Paige said: “No, it's not a possibility and it won't be a possibility. I've loved playing her and I've loved working at Emmerdale, but I feel like the story came to an end.

"I mean, we did do everything, didn't we? We went for it. I feel like to come back would be over-egging the story.”
Looking to the future, Paige has her eyes on what her career has in-store post-Emmerdale. She said: “I have been auditioning and there have been some offers. It's tough though, because I've played, in my opinion, the best character ever. So I'm now putting everything up against Meena.
“I'm waiting to find a character that I love as much as her, if not more. We'll see. I will always say yes to playing villains.

“Villains are so much fun. You can be more playful with them. That isn't always true, but there's scope to have more fun. I'd love to play a good person as well and have the full scope.”
