“Well, I have exited the show. It was a mutual decision. It all started when the production crew shifted to Hyderabad for shoot. I wasn’t really comfortable to travel and take the risk when the pandemic was its peak. I informed the makers about my decision and they were OK with it. The shoot in Hyderabad went for around two months. We thought it would be for less time. However, when they returned to Mumbai, my character had already lost the graph. The makers eased me and told me that I can look for other opportunities.”

Of course, I also want to play the lead character but that doesn’t mean that I won’t take up characters.

You are offered better monies as the protagonist, but I didn’t join the industry to make money. That’s important but so is creative satisfaction.” [3]The Times of India
