The talented actor Adhvik Mahajan, who plays the role of Madhav in Star Plus' Meri Durga, is enjoying his stint in the show.

In a conversation, the handsome man talks about the his career decisions, the necessary mandates to become an actor and what he plans to do next. Read on!

What kind of response did you get for Madhav's role?

The response has been amazing from my fans and friends, who have been really kind about my performance and loved it. They say that they can see a fresh changed look from my Bani days. My track just finished as the show is going for a leap

You played the main lead in Bani, so wasn't it a difficult decision to take this role?

It was not a difficult decision at all. I was well informed by creatives that I will be the solo male lead in the show till the time show takes a leap and it has been an amazing experience.

Do you think having six packs is necessary for an actor?

Not at all, only if the character requirement is six or eight packs, then you need to have them. But at the same time being physically fit should be the responsibility of any leading actor or actress as many people look up to us and get inspired.

Do you think good looks are necessary for TV actors?

Good looks or bad looks are purely subject and depends on your perception. Every face or person has a distinct character and personality. Looks should be good enough for a particular role that we have been chosen to perform.

The competition in TV industry has increased. For one role, there are so many actors competing so what do you have to say about that?

Competition has always been there and it will keep on increasing. But I think it's really important as it keeps us on our toes and motivates us to work even harder in all aspects. Also, there has been a big increase in a number of Hindi films, Regional cinema, television shows, web shows, advertisements, digital content etc. being made which means demand for actors has also increased considerably.

What changes do you find in the television industry since your Bani days?

It has been only a couple of years that Bani went off the air, so there are not many changes that I am aware of in the Television industry. Just that few more channels have come up with new shows and also the digital medium has really picked up in a big way providing more opportunities for actors and technicians from film and television industry.

What are the two strengths of your show Meri Durga?

Though there are many, best two would be - it is based on the backdrop of a Father-Daughter relationship and their struggles, secondly it's backed by the expertise of super talented creative force Mr Ravindra Gautam.

How is your experience of working with Paperback Films?

It was superb working with Paperback films, they delivered what they promised in terms of the character graph that was designed for my role, so I am satisfied. I would love to work with them again soon. In fact they are doing really well, considering that they are producing for the first time. My best wishes are with them.

How was it working with Rishina Kandhari?

I met Rishina at this show itself and I must say she is a super chilled out person, always in high spirits, full of positivity and warmth. Unfortunately, we didn't have any scene together but I found a new friend in her. Hopefully, I will shoot with her soon.

You started with theatre then Hindi, Tamil, Telugu cinemas and TV....now what next?

I have been lucky to have worked in all mediums whether it is theatre, Hindi movies, Telugu and Tamil movies and Television. My focus has always been on the role and scope for performance, and now the medium it is on. Also, I have recently completed the shoot of my next Hindi movie which is scheduled for October release. Apart from that now I am waiting for some new exciting opportunity to come my way.

Good luck Adhvik!
