MUMBAI: Ankit Narang is best known for portraying the character of Soham Deshmukh on Zee TV's popular show Pavitra Rishta. He started his career in 2011 with the role of Manan Sharma in the TV serial Tum Dena Saath Mera.
After shooting for Pavitra Rishta, Ankit took a break for personal reasons and joined his dad's business in Surat. While doing that, he received an offer for a new show, which required him to gain weight. The target weight was 96 kilos. After successfully gaining weight, Ankit was disappointed to realize that the serial was shelved even before its production had started. He was supposed to play the lead in the show. The biggest challenge he faced was pulling down all the additional kilos, and he took almost a year to do so. However, he was strong-willed and made sure he that got back into shape. According to him, 'While it was a challenge to get rid of the extra weight, I never let it come in my way, and while losing weight, I was doing the famous theatre play Court Marshal, which I did for 3 years as BD Kapoor.'

In spite, of the unfortunate call-off, Ankit has no bitterness towards the producer, in fact, they share a great relationship with each other even after the incident. He says, 'Sometimes, unfortunate things happen and it is no one's fault. This is the only production house I am close to. These are the best people to work with, and I am keen on working with them again.'

The concept of the show is really intriguing, and I love my character. I am super excited and a little nervous too, as I want it to be perfect.'
