MUMBAI : Gandharv Dewan has been a part of movies like The Zoya Factor, Shiddat, and others, and he has also done a few web series like Office vs. Office, Life Sahi Hai 2, and more. The actor’s current project is Gulmohar which has started streaming on Disney+ Hotstar.
TellyChakkar recently interacted with Gandharv and spoke to him about his role in the film, his experience of working with Manoj Bajpayee and Sharmila Tagore, and more...
Tell us about your role in Gulmohar.
This film is about a family who is shifting their house and I play the role of chief supervisor of the packers and movers company that’s helping them in shifting. So, I am taking care of all the shifting.
How was your experience of working with Manoj Bajpayee and Sharmila Tagore ma’am?
I look up to both of them as actors; Sharmila ma’am has worked with Satyajit Ray, and Manoj Bajpayee has worked with Anurag sir and he has given so many great performances. I look up to his performance in Satya, The Family Man, and Gangs Of Wasseypur, so it was very surreal to be around them. It was a learning experience for me all the time. Manoj sir shares a lot of wisdom and talks to young actors. After my scenes, he asked his assistant to pull a chair for me and made me have a cold drink, and asked me about my journey so far. He was very happy to know that I am from NSD.
The film is about a family. So, was there any moment while shooting when you felt that this story is very relatable?
Absolutely, all the characters are very real. I am from Delhi, so the father-son relationship in the movie I feel is very close to my relationship. I cried a lot while watching the film and even while reading the script the scenes touched me. So yes, absolutely in the film everything is very relatable and very real.
