Karan Mehra, who plays Vedant in Sony's Virrudh is considered very auspicious, as the Delhi born actor is the one who plays the role of a smaller brother to two big stars - Abhishek Bachchan in his upcoming film Drona and Smriti Irani in Virrudh.
Talking about his experience of playing chota bhai to Junior Bachchan, Karan says, "When I was approached for the film, I didn't know what was expected of me; after all it was alongside Abhishek Bachchan. But that all changed later. Abhishek is really a great person who is full of humour and very down to earth."
Karan admits that he was very nervous at the start of Virrudh since he was about to play small brother to Smriti Irani, one of the most popular faces on television.
About Smriti, Karan says, "She may be my elder sister on screen, but off screen she is like a mother figure to me. She is very caring and loving, and corrects me whenever I am wrong."
A hopeful Karan goes on to add, "I feel nice in my mind about my present characters but also think that some day I will became a big brother!"
