I had told Arunima, no one has ever made me a lover-boy on screen - Suhail Nayyar

Prime Video released its highly-anticipated show, Jee Karda, this week. It's a beautiful story depicting the challenges of adulthood. With its honest and realistic content, this romantic comedy drama, about seven childhood friends, is winning the hearts of audiences. Rishabh Rathore, a cute-but-dorky character played by Suhail Nayyar, has received a lot of adulation from viewers. He plays the lead in the series alongside Tamannaah Bhatia as the owner of a restaurant/fusion café who is also set to launch an app.

While promoting the show, Suhail gave insights on how he landed the role of the lover-boy, “Honestly, I am not a big fan of looking back at what I have achieved because I believe in looking ahead as there is a long way to go. And with that thought, the way Jee Karda happened to me, from the auditions to the dynamic I now have with Arunima (Sharma, director), all of that is just really close to my heart. I had told her, no one has ever made me a lover-boy on screen especially when I am all about love. I have always gotten roles of a terrorist or someone who sells drugs which I love experimenting with but this role is very close to my heart. I am getting to show my side as a lover through Rishab.”

Produced by Dinesh Vijan’s Maddock Films, Jee Karda is directed by Arunima Sharma and co-written with Hussain Dalal and Abbas Dalal. The show has an ensemble cast including Tamannaah Bhatia,Aashim Gulati, Anya Singh, Hussain Dalal, Sayan Banerjee, and Samvedna Suwalka. Jee Karda can be streamed exclusively on Prime Video.
