Parth on replacing ACP Pradyuman
This comes days after Parth admitted that he rejected the role as he had doubts about replacing the most iconic character. In an interview with Hindustan Times, he said, “Initially, I rejected the role of ACP Pradyuman, because I don’t relate to it. But the makers asked me to reconsider. I was also hesitant due to the show’s long-standing cast and the fact that they’d have to address me as ‘sir’ on screen. It felt a bit unusual and awkward.”
