While lead roles are often preferred on Indian television, actor Puru Chibber says that Rahul Kumar Tewary & Rolling Tales Production’s Udne ki Aasha seems to have changed that perception. The actor says that all the characters of the show are so well-defined with their own strong character graph.
“It really depends on what kind of actor you are. Nowadays, I've seen many actors who are good, doing shows one after another, maybe taking a break, then doing shows again. So, I think if you're a good actor and good at your work, you'll get work. In TV and any industry, it's a bit difficult. Success doesn't actually depend solely on you. You might be a very good actor and a brilliant performer, but if the audience doesn't accept your character, you'll always be just okay. Once the audience accepts the character you're playing, everything will work for you,” he says.
However, he adds that if you perform well, then you will surely bag the lead role. “It's not always straightforward. Luck is involved, but if you maintain yourself, look like a lead, and perform like a lead, or if the character suits you, then you’ll get the lead role. For example, the best part about 'Udne Ki Aasha' is that, while there are leads, all the primary characters have their own stories and things going on, which doesn’t usually happen in TV. If this show works, and it should, it will open up opportunities for similar shows where every character is as important as the leads,” he says.
Talking about how he motivates himself to shoot every day, he says, “What drives me to the set isn't just the character but also the people on the set. The actors, the production team, the direction team, the costume team, the spotboys, the technicians – all are so sweet. There's a good vibe on set, and we are connected. It's very important to have fun on set. If you have fun, it's brilliant. I don't get pranked often, but I've played a couple of pranks with Neha Harsora (Sailee) and Tanvi Shewale (Roshni). I tried with Radhika Vidyasagar (Renuka), but it didn't work.”
