Award function replayed for Angad
Angad Hasija, known as Alekh from Sapna Babul Ka… Bidaai, won the best actor award at the ITA awards function. However, the actor left shortly after he performed at the ceremony and missed his chance to collect his trophy on stage.
Angad says, "I was not well that day so I performed at the function and left to get some rest. I always attend awards ceremonies and never take home the prize so I thought that this time would be no different."
The award was collected by Angad's onscreen wife, Sara Khan. The members of the Bidaai crew made it up to him by organizing a special ceremony at the actor's home. Angad elaborates, "When I was told that I won the award I was surprised. Then the entire unit of Bidaai, approximately 50 members, came to my place. They were screaming and shouting and could be heard throughout my society. They then conducted an identical awards function. Sara played the host and our producer, Rajan sir, presented me with the trophy."
A delighted Angad continues, "Last year, I didn't win any awards so Rajan gave me his trophy and told me to return it to him when I do win one. I challenged God by keeping the trophy in my temple. After Rajan gave me my award he told me that it was time to return his trophy. I complied of course."
The actor, who plans to throw a party for everyone, feels sorry that he missed the moment to thank all of them. "It's been my dream to go on stage and collect my trophy but it is fine. After having a small function at home, Rajan sir took us out for dinner at the J.W.Marriot."
Angad can now be seen playing Krishna on Bidaai. "I am the first play Lord Krishna on a daily soap. I had to paint my entire body sky blue for 3 continuous days. The colorist would start my makeup at 6pm and we would be done for the day by midnight. Removing the paint took about 3 hours. I have a reaction to the paint, I get boils all over my body, but I am lucky to have this chance to play Lord Krishna," says the actor.
Sara Khan (Sadhana), Parul Chauhan (Ragini) as well as the series also received honours. We wish the entire Bidaai team our heartiest congratulations.
