Mohit Sehgal: I don’t want to take up something that offers no creative satisfaction

MUMBAI: Mohit Sehgal is presently seen in Naagin 5. He says that he would have been apprehensive about taking it up earlier. The actor shares, “If 'Naagin' was offered to me during its first edition, I would have thought twice, wondering how it would shape up. However, by now, everyone knows how it’s made, so I had no apprehensions about exploring the genre. In fact, Sanaya (his wife, actress Sanaya Irani) was very happy for me. She told me to not think and just take it up.”

Interestingly, Arjun Bijlani, his 'Miley Jab Hum Tum' co-actor, played the male lead in the first season of 'Naagin'. So, did he fear being compared with him? “Every season has a different story. Ratings may fluctuate, but besides that, no two seasons can be compared. I don’t pay attention to comparisons because I don’t believe in them. I just want to give my best shot, people are free to like it or not. We can only try to do better if they don’t like us,” he responds.

Mohit believes in quality over quantity. He says, “I don’t believe in keeping it rolling just to be in circulation or for visibility. As an artiste, I don’t want to take up something that offers no creative satisfaction."
