Rajesh Khera out of LRL-Bombay Times

Rajesh Khera out of Left Right Left

ROSHNI OLIVERA WARD

Rajesh Khera's very happy with his character, Major Bhargav in Left Right Left on SAB. He can't stop talking about his role, which he says is one of his best till now. But there's another controversy brewing here. Rajesh will soon not be seen in the show. Apparently, he asked for a higher remuneration, which he got. But, that became an issue of contention. Rajesh's character will now be eased out of the show soon.
Ask the actor about it and he promptly says, "There are no issues. On paper this was supposed to be a role that would last for 30 episodes. After 30 episodes I asked for a 100 per cent raise, which I got. My character could have lasted for some more episodes, but probably because I asked for an increase in the money... maybe the budget didn't allow."
But Rajesh would rather talk about the happy times. "I enjoyed myself playing this character. It was fun on the sets. In fact, the other day I had a party for the unit. Everybody from the spotboy to the director has started speaking like Major Bhargav, exactly the way I would deliver the dialogues. That's a high!"
So who did he get along with best? "Rajeev Khandelwal's an amazing guy. He's so committed about his work that it helped me perform better. Some of the other male cadets have a long way to go because they seem to be focussing more on their stud appearance than on their acting! Of course I'm referring to just two of them. But I won't give out any names," he laughs.
