Ek Hazaaron Mein Meri Behna Hai, Star Plus
HE hails from a political family, but Kushal Tandon always dreamt of a career in the entertainment industry. A common face in advertisements, he followed up the stint with an acting course at New York Film Academy. After returning to India, he was spotted by Cinevistaas' Siddharth Malhotra, who offered him a role in Ek Hazaaron Mein Meri Behna Hai. "We wrote the character Virat to go with his personality," Malhotra says. In the show, he plays the role of a rebel with a heart of gold and strong morals. He falls in love with a cancer patient, Maanvi, a factor that tugs at the audience's heartstrings. Tandon's youthful looks and mischievous smile add to his popularity. Malhotra adds, "He is also a very real character and his banter with Maanvi has a youth appeal."
