MUMBAI: The talented actor will be seen essaying the role of Captain Rohit Bagga who was away on leave when the terror siege in Mumbai took place and the NSG Commandos were called upon. As soon as he learnt of the development, the brave commando immediately called his senior and reported on duty. While his senior tried to reason, that he is on a personal leave and can avoid this, Captain Rohit Bagga insisted that he would like to be part of the operation. He then, drove down four hours straight and made it in the nick of time to board the flight on that fateful day.
Vivek, who also celebrates his birthday today, will be seen making his digital debut with this role. His character Captain Rohit Bagga had a great deal of knowledge and expertise in explosives. He is infact, the commando who was responsible for bringing down the terrorists at Nariman House.
Talking about his experience Vivek Dahiya shares, “"Playing an ambitious character is a treat for me as I myself am someone who is driven by my work! And while as actors we are only entertaining, these men are truly saving lives and protecting our country! For me this one is special as I'm truly playing a character of a braveheart and one that has helped me grow as a human being and brought me closer to my own country. Being on a set in an army officer's uniform is one thing but the show has been made with so much attention to detail that for me my respect has grown towards our army officer and commandos after actually stepping into their shoes. Their selflessness and to put your country above everything, including yourself and your family, and to live and die for your nation needs an unbelievably strong heart. The character of Captain Rohit Bagga has helped me expand my horizons and come closest to what its like to be in a battlefield and do whatever it may take for the love of your country. I am truly looking forward to the release of on ZEE5.!"
