The actor, who earlier played a CBI officer in the 2015 Irrfan-starrer Talvar, shared that this time he wanted to play ൩a cop in uniform and he insisted to the creator and director of Dahaad Reema Kagti to let him play a Vardi waala cop.

He also spoke about his character and how he crafted his performance. Being from a "small town" of Sri Ganganagar, really helped the actor in terms of the pitching🌟 of his cha🙈racter.
He added, "I think writing is a very tough job, as an actor we rely on good stories that enhance our performance. A well-written character gives𝓡 you the chance to give your very best. We actors add our personalities to the characters that we play, we add ⭕our life experiences to them. Fortunately, I'm from a small town so that really helped in my performance in this series".
