Model turned actor Farhan Khan who is making his television debut with Sony TV's latest show Chanchan is looking forward to spread some happiness amongst the audience through his new serial.

When asked Farhan about the concept of the show, he said, "It is not a typical saas-bahu show, it's very different. It won't have cliche portrayals and old kind of heroes. Optimystix is one such production company who believe in creating new things. The show will make people happy and as the name of the company states, it will make everyone optimistic."

He further adds, "Ekta Kapoor has done her job of making people sad and depressed with her shows, this show will make people cheerful and spread love."

When quizzed about his role, Farhan excitedly stated, "I play the character of Manav who is extremely happy-go-lucky and a true romantic. He is a very down to earth guy and loves his parents. He is very lovable just like me. The love story between Manav and Chanchan is an adorable tale something which has not been explored on television before. So far, I have shot a lot of romantic scenes with Sanaya Irani and she is an amazing actress."

This newbie is confident that his efforts will pay off but he also feels that there is a competition between Chanchan and him. "I am sure girls will like Chanchan but I really hope girls look at me as well. I hope I win this competition and girls like me more (laughs)." Farhan thinks girls like Chanchan exist in every family. "If you look around, you will definitely find a Chanchan in your life. The look is contemporary and she is a chirpy young girl. Such girls exist all around us and they make the entire family happy. Chanchan makes everyone happy with her smile and Sanaya Irani actually has a very pleasant smile so according to me she is the right person to play the role."

The show hits the screens tomorrow and also stars Supriya Pathak, Anang Desai amongst others.
