After Mehndi Hai Rachne Wali, Chashni and now Imlie, how has been your journey so far working in the Hindi TV industry?

The journey started on television from the beginning of 2021 and it’s going great with the love of my fans. There are blessings also of my near and dear ones and of my mentors in the industry who have always been there for me. I want to thank them all.

With all the hard work and co-ordination, we achieved a tremendous response from the audience' side with the first show itself. 

You worked for two shows with Sandiip Sikcand and now a different producer and production house. Are you nervous?

First, I would like to thank my previous producers and mentors, my directors for my first breakthrough. And now, It’s definitely not a nervous feeling, but we all have learnt many technical aspects with each project. The same way with me it would be an amazing opportunity to work with Gul Khan now. Every creative producer has a unique approach to execution and we as actors should be working with other creatives as it will indeed help our craft too. 

Whatever you have shot with Adrija so far, how was the experience?

She is a wonderful co-actor, very humble and down-to-earth person.  We bonded very well from the first day of the shoot itself.

How is Agastya's character relatable to you?

He is a straightforward person, understands the language of business, a subtle person but clever enough to know what’s happening behind him too. Agastya is shrewd in nature and has his own past too. These characteristics got me hooked on the role. Also the new look (long hair) is what I would like to include, makes a different approach again for me as an actor.
