MUMBAI: Shashank Vyas, who has been missing from the TV screens for a long time, is awaiting the release of his debut Bollywood film. Shashank, who was last seen on ‘Roop- Mard Ka Naya Swaroop’, talks about his break from TV, why he does not take social media seriously, and what he really wants in his ideal life partner.
Shashank shares that people will have a good time watching the film. Ask him if he feels any pressure regarding the release of his film, he says, “Pressure sirf performance ka hota hai, baaki kya pressure lena? I have worked on TV for almost 10 years but I never took pressure of TRPs, about the business, or shows. Scene jab aata hai haath mein tab woh ache se ho, that is the only thing that I think about,” he says.

The actor became a household name with Jagya’s character on ‘Balika Vadhu’ and credits the show and TV for what he is today. But for Shashank, this is the time to explore new genres on web and films. “I find myself too comfortable on TV. I think if I stay in my comfort zone, then I am doing a mistake in my life. That means that I am not letting myself grow. ‘Balika Vadhu’ ke time mujhe show ke technicians bhi kehte thay ki ab toh aap film hi karoge, par maine uske baad bhi ek show kar liya, uske baad bhi ek show kiya. Then you start thinking about money, which is also important but phir uss mein insan faske reh jaata hai,” he says.
While his fans have been missing him on TV, the actor mentions that he got a lot of offers but for now, his focus is on films and web. Talking about the offers he got recently, Shashank says, “Maine zyada toh nahi kahunga par kam bhi nahi kahunga. Almost every channel or the production house called me up for shows. I recently had a discussion with my dad when the makers of one of my shows called me up and they offered me a show. But they understood that why I don’t want to do TV for now. Duniya mein paise kamane ke 50 tareeke hote hain toh maine acting ko choose kyun kiya? I chose this because this is my passion. I don’t know anything apart from this so I want to grow, make mistakes and learn. Jahan meri growth hi nahi ho rahi hai wahan par rook ke kya fayda.”
