Vivek Dahiya moving to films from TV; opens up on if he would return

Over the years, we have witnessed several actors on the small screen who have transitioned onto the big screen. While many have been not entirely successful in their efforts, a select few have managed to make a mark.

Actor Vivek Dahiya, who has done quite a few TV shows already would be hoping he belongs to the latter as he is all set to focus on films and might not take up a TV project anytime soon.

Talking about it with ETimes TV, Dahiya said, "TV is a great medium for any actor because of its reach and penetration, and I’m proud to have worked and learned so much during these years. But now I want to spread my wings and try out different things. It's difficult for a guy to prove his versatility on the small screen because TV has shows that revolve around women. There isn’t much left for a man to do here. Most shows are family dramas and one does not look different from the other. I know a lot of people who say that they won’t work in television, but end up returning to the medium, so never say never. I might come back too, but for now, I want to focus on films."

Talking about what kinda role he wants to do, he said, "I am meeting different people and I have the faith that soon I will bag an interesting project. I don’t want to confine or restrict myself, I want to try all sorts of characters, whether they are positive, grey or the villain. I am trained in martial arts, so I would love to do an action-oriented role in a film or a web show."
