MANOJ BOHRA (28)
Something about my background... "I am from a filmi background. My dad Mahendra Bohra produced the latest releaseEk Hasina Thi in collaboration with Ram Gopal Varma. I started my career on television as an assistant director to BP Singh for CID and later for Achanak 37 Saal Baad. I also played Saloni's boyfriend in Just Mohabbat."
About my role... "I play Nakul, a rich spoilt brat who is in love with Kali. I have immense hatred for Kkusum's daughter, Kumud."
How did the audition go... "Well, I was auditioned for some other Balaji Telefilms shows, which were scheduled for mid and late 2004. Then, they thought that I would be better off playing Nakul."
Some other assignments... "I am doing a Star Plus serial Shararat as well. Plus, I have modeled for Chlormint, Levi's, BPL, Fun Republic, Frooti. I am also into the Art of Living; it helps me to bear the physical stress involved in television acting where we actors are required to shoot for 16-17 hours every day."
About plans to get on to the silver screen... "Of course I want to do films. But it's too early to say anything. Let me take this role to its logical conclusion and establish myself as an actor. I started my career as an assistant-director because my dad advised me to. He often told me that you need to understand the craft and skill of acting from a director's perspective behind the camera, only then you won't falter in front of it."
