Satish's most loved character is his iconic role of Indravadan Sarabhai from the popular comedy show Sarabhai Vs Sarabhai. The actor has maintained an active presence on his Twitter handle where he shares his unfiltered opinions about social issues and incidents.
In a recent interview, Satish Shah spoke about a problem he noticed with Indian viewers. He said that when actors play funny roles, people tend to label them only as 'comedians,' overlooking their other talents.
According to him, the issue is that the audience sometimes can't separate the actor's on-screen character from their real-life self. He shared a personal experience where, during a difficult time when his wife was seriously ill in the hospital, someone approached him with an insensitive request.
Revealing what happened, the Sarabhai Vs Sarabhai said, "I was sitting outside, very worried, and a guy comes to me and says, ‘You look so glum, it doesn’t suit you. Why don’t you tell me a joke'”
Forget making a joke, Satish said, he could’ve hit him with a ‘knockout punch’ instead. He added, “But somehow, better sense prevailed, and I just walked off. But it’s part of the baggage we carry.” For the uninformed, the actor has been married to Madhu Shah since 1972.
