Zee TV's Jodha Akbar (Balaji
Telefilms) is all set to open up the
track wherein the story will
introduce the nine jewels of Akbar's
(Rajat Tokas) court. And as we know,
making an appearance as Tansen is
talented actor Vijay Badlani. The guy
is indeed very ecstatic for having
bagged this historical role.
"Yes, I play Keshav Pandit who will
later be rechristened as Tansen by
Emperor Akbar," confirms the actor.
He further goes on to add, "I am
really thankful to Ekta mam (Kapoor)
for giving me this opportunity."
Interestingly, the actor has had to
work extremely hard to get the
nuances of this character right as he
avers, "This has been one of the
most challenging characters for me
as I had never held a tanpura in my
hand before this. But the crash-
course in classical music helped me
get into the soul of this character."
Do you personally like music? "Yes, I
like different forms of music. Hence I
am thoroughly enjoying this role."
Keep up the good work, Vijay!.
