The handsome and talented  Mayank Gandhi, who portrays the role of a mentally challenged character- Nandu in Zee TV’s poignant social drama Kaala Teeka is an impressive actor, but above all, he is a committed, thorough professional who believes that the show must go on, no matter what.  The actor who has returned to the show within barely a day or two of his marriage, postponing his honeymoon plans, has injured himself badly and even broken his finger while shooting an action sequence for the show. After taking medication, Mayank continued to shoot and did not take a day off.  The cast and crew of the show were thoroughly impressed by the actor’s dedication and professionalism.

About the accident, Mayank Gandhi says, “It was a very intense scene where I had to break the window of the car. I don’t know when the madness of Nandu took over and I got carried away … I realized I had crashed my fist into the window with full vengeance only when I saw my hand bleeding. The crew members immediately sprang to their feet and rushed in to help. I consulted the doctor, got my first-aid, had my medicines and decided to finish the sequence with the help of  the production house. You have to prioritize work above your comfort if the situation calls for it. The scene was important and the set up was already done. Such accidents keep happening, because of which one shouldn’t stop working. All is well now.”

We wish Mayank a speedy recovery!

In the upcoming episodes of Kaala Teeka, viewers will see a major twist  where Nandu enters Kaali’s life again. Everyone in the house is unaware about his secret marriage to Kali. Will he reveal the truth about their marriage to the whole family?
