TV's new tough guys do not want softer roles
Harshad Arora and Ashish Sharma
A newcomer to tellytown, Harshad Arora who plays Zain in the just-launched Beintehaa, is a former model from Delhi. Harshad recently moved to Mumbai for better career prospects.
The actor says his character Zain does not love the woman he is married to. He says, "Generally, opposites attract, but in this show we are two different individuals and so, we hate each other and then, love comes between us. It's a fresh concept and I am looking forward to this role."Harshad did not undergo any major preparation for the role but did follow a few Pakistani dramas to understand Muslim culture and traditions. Ever an optimist, he says, "I believe newcomers are given good opportunities on television. I want to focus on work, the rest follows."


Ashish Sharma plays Rudra, the male lead in Rangrasiya and he has been cast opposite Sanaya Irani, who plays Paro. Sharma's characterhas grey shades and has a tough exterior because he plays an army officer stationed in Rajasthan.

Ashish had to undergo training to look the part. He had to abandon his muscular physique, opting instead for a leaner look and indulging in combat training for the role. A shy guy in real life, he was initially worried
about striking a rapport with his co-star.
He says, "Sanaya is an outspoken girl and she broke the ice between us. I share a good working relationship with her now and it helps in the chemistry as well."
Sharma, who has done grey roles before, feels that it is "important to be conscious of your decisions when you choose roles. You can't be just opting for a sugary role and doing nothing." Being from Jaipur, Ashish enjoyed his shooting time in Jaisalmer. He says, "Rajasthan is a beautiful state and I always enjoy being there."

Lovely article. Thanks for sharing.
I wanted a strong lead for Sanaya for this show and when Ashish's name first came into picture i was a bit skeptical as i read somewhere that he was good actor but reserved and shy, and how would he get along with our bombastic Sanaya. Now i'm relieved. Hope RR brings both of them the much needed recognition.(awards wise)
