Speaking about his experience, Raj Anadkat shares, “APPROVED QUOTE BY ACTOR
“Working on this show has given me the incredible opportunity to play a variety of characters, from a tough cop to a lively Gujju and even a charming South Indian man. Portraying the cop was intense—I had to handle a real hunter, and while it hurt at first, once I locked into the character, that pain became part of the performance. On the flip side, stepping into the shoes of Kanji Karsandas and improvising as Chinnaswami Muthuswami Venugopal Iyer was pure joy! While playing Kanji Karsandas, I faced some challenges in getting the proper Kathiyawadi accent. Co-actors like Ragini Ma’am and Vandana Ma’am helped me and corrected me during the scene. As for my South Indian character, during a scene, our creative director suddenly informed us that the character needed a South Indian background. I didn’t hesitate for a second—I was instantly excited to dive into this role and improvised on the spot! It was such a blast to shoot, and it made the entire episode more enjoyable.”
