Why? For tackling his kasauti with panache
When his debut film Jaan Tere Naam celebrated a silver jubilee, film
editor Ronit Roy decided to chase a filmi career. He probably did
not expect the duds and thuds to follow.
Aadha Inteqaam, Tehqiqat and Bomb Blast later, Ronit was running a
security agency. As he said, "Some films were wrong, some people
were wrong." But Kasauti Zindagi Kay was just right, and Kyunkii
Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu, even better.
The roles of snow-haired Mr Bajaj and the perplexed Mihir Virani
respectively, earned him successive Best Actor awards, fans, respect
and acclaim A-list filmstars command. Some things — read flops —
happen for the best.
