Actor Rohan Mehra, who was part of Anand Mishra and Ekta Kapoor's MTV BCL, talks about how his experience was when it comes to playing in the tournament, whom he found irritating in the team and all the rest of the drama surrounding BCL.

How was the experience of being part MTV BCL?

It was an amazing experience. Since it was my first BCL, I was not sure of how it will be, but I loved it. The time-slot is also perfect and people are watching and enjoying it as well.

The youth has connected to the show and ratings are high, what is the feedback you are getting?

Yes, since it's on MTV India, the youth are connected to it. I am getting a positive response on social media as well. It has been incredible being part of the show.

Drama is a big part of MTV BCL and it does entertain audiences. Comment.

Yes, it is. Drama plus cricket is a deadly combination and that is why BCL is a big hit.

Rakhi Sawant, Rajeev Thakur, Hiten Tejwani, Arshi Khan, Chestha Bhagat did a lot of drama on the pitch and audiences are loving it. What do you have to say about that?

I am glad people are loving the drama. The show is a hit this time and that is the only thing that matters. They have kept people entertained in their own way.

Do controversies always help an actor? What is your viewpoint?

I personally try to avoid controversies. But, may be, for some actors it's helpful. To each his own, I guess.

The kind of content like Bigg Boss and BCL always attracts audiences. Comment.

People love watching reality shows as they get to see how actors actually are. These shows do attract people as they get to see their favourite stars in their true form.

Who has been your favourite player in the league and why?

My favorite player has been UD from my team Lucknow Nawabs, because he was exceptional with the bat and the ball.

Who was the most irritating player on the field and why?

I didn't really find anyone irritating because we were really involved in cricket and didn't have the time to notice the irritating people!

Any interesting incident from the field? Please share.

There were many but I won't reveal any of them. I want people to watch them on MTV.
