| In Sony Television's Rishton Ki Dor, Chanana plays businessman Rahul Raichand | After playing a double role and romancing two women in Yehi To Hai Woh on Star One, wooing three women is not going to be a difficult task for Gourav Chanana. His new serial Rishton Ki Dor on Sony, just a fortnight old, has this Yari Road resident doing precisely that.
Talking about his character in his latest serial, Gourav says, "As the name suggests, the story is about human emotions and relationships. I play the role of businessman Rahul Raichand who is not the typical good guy. He has come up the hard way and after achieving success, he is used to the good life."
Gourav says that he is in seventh heaven because his new role has shades of grey. "The character of Rahul allows me to enact various emotions — he has to be mean, ruthless and savvy in his business dealings. Yet, he is totally clueless when it comes to relationships.
He is wooing three women at the same time; his boss' daughter, who is also his fianc, the second lady is a married woman and the third is a self-righteous nurse, whom he is love with," he explains.
From SAB TV's Love Mein Kabhi Kabhi to acting in the film Woh Tera Naam Tha, today Gourav is comfortable acting across the medium, be it serials, theatre or films. "I had actually never intended to be an actor.
I had always been good academically and was doing my chartered accountancy. In Air force Bal Bharti School, where I was studying, drama was a part of the Class 11 curriculum. That's what got me interested in acting. Today, I am ready to play any role as long as it's challenging," he says
