Vikram Acharya, aka Sameer of <em>Who Rehne Wali Mehlon Ki,</em> has not been reporting for work. The reason: He's down with fever. Surprisingly, the doctors too have failed to diagnose the real cause of his sickness. In Vikram's case it is not the hunger pangs, rather it's the guilt pangs, of not going to work, which is affecting him the most.

Vikram Acharya aka Sameer of <em> Woh Rehne Wali Mehlon Ki</em> is grinning from ear to ear. The suave actor has been roped in to play the lead role in the new show <em> Shakira on Bindaas</em> channel. Vikram sounded upbeat about his character. "I'm portraying the positive character of Sanjay Gujral, who's a dashing media tycoon. The character has been etched on the lines of business tycoon Vijay Mallya. I've just completed the first schedule of shooting."

Vikram Acharya, better known as Sameer after his negative act in <em> Woh Rehne Wali Mahalo Ki,</em> is a busy man these days. Apart from being busy with ads and writing , Vikram also has Bollywood plans for which he's been seen donning a bald look. We caught up with the actor for a brief tete-e-tete. <strong>Missing out on offers</strong> I was planning to do a film and needed to go for a look test. So, I had to shave off my hair. I did get a few offers but also had to give up some because of my bald look. Also, later I managed to bag a role in <em>Woh Rehne Wali.</em>

Nothings happening on the acting front for Vikram Acharya but that doesn't stop him from being associated with his creativity. The actor has collaborated with RS Creations, which has produced Star One's <em> Apni Tuning Jamegi and around 19 ad films.

Vikram Acharya is not to be seen on television and it's not because the actor doesn't want to be seen on the tube but for the simple reason that he's not getting the kind of roles he is interested in. So, the actor is busy writing a script based on his experiences while doing the Star One show <em>Dil Kya Chahta Hai. </em>The script is touted to be a hard core comedy and Vikram is all set to make a film of it.
