PRO-FILE: Ankur Nayyar

Everything seems to be working fine for him. ''It's going fine. Kashmir was a magnum opus with lots of grandeur where I was sharing stage with a few others. Then came Jeet which was also a big show where I played the protagonist. So it was a big responsibility. Even now in Reth and Yeh To Hai Woh, I play very interesting roles,'' says Ankur.

Ankur, who is Shekhar in Reth, says his role is very positive and loaded with emotions. ''Shekhar used to be a journalist whose wife gets raped. He has to marry again to save his wife and family. He got divorced from his first wife and doesn't reveal that he is doing all this for his family. So he's taken as the wrong guy. It has a lot of shades, hence a lot of scope to perform,'' says the actor. On the other hand in Yehi To Hai Woh, he plays the role of Pran, an out and out negative character. A multimillionaire, who has a flourishing business and financial institutions. ''He's into shipping, fisheries... you name it. He is a rich dude. He has a class of his own. He is very chilled out and composed. He knows what he wants,'' he adds.

He's also done two films which are complete and ready for release. One is a Smita Thackeray production called Hum Jo Keh Na Paaye and the other one is a children's film by Jolly Mukherjee called Detective Nani. ''I basically want to do good work. My two shows are going good and I am enjoying both the characters. Though while playing a good guy you are restricted, your reigns are pulled, but while doing a negative one you have lot of room and space. You can make your graph. And like I said, I am exploring myself,'' he says.
