MUMBAI: TV content has undergone vast changes in the last decade and makers are now trying their best to come up with content that is close to reality. Even the actors feel that it’s easier for them to portray such characters and connect with the audience.
Anuj Sachdeva, who is seen as Chiranjeev Chaudhary aka Cheeru in the TV show Woh Toh Hai Albela, shares, “As an actor, it is important that the audience feels the emotions that I am trying to portray and can connect to it. Half my job is done if people look at my character Cheeru and feel, ‘Oh, this is how my elder brother is!’ or wish they had an elder brother like him.”
He also feels that putting in regional elements helps a show build a connection. Giving an example of his current show, he says, “If you put little nuances and a little bit of dialect, it does not just help people connect with the show but makes the audience believe in it while giving a glimpse of the concerned city or town.”
“The shows currently on air are no longer about kitchen politics, people are thinking about more out of the box ideas and the content has evolved. People are trying new sequences and putting in new elements. That’s why I can say that this bonding of the three brothers is still unexplored because the shows always used to revolve around the female protagonist,” he says.
