Sanjeev Seth who has had a career
spanning around 25 years is a satisfied
man after giving nearly 10 years to the
most popular show, Yeh Rishta Kya
Kehlata Hai, on Star Plus.
Produced by Rajan Shahi's Director's Kut,
Yeh Rishta continues to entertain
audiences and rake in big numbers.
For Sanjeev, his life would have been
something different if he had not been
part of the iconic show.
Yes, Sanjeev and actress Lata Sabharwal
met each other on the sets of the show
way back in 2004, and got married in the
same year.
In an exclusive chat with IWMBuzz.com,
Sanjeev Seth talks about his long journey
with the show and on plans for the future.
Says Sanjeev, "My Yeh Rishta journey has
been very good. I have spent 10 long
years on one show, with the same people
and production house. It has been a very
sweet journey with good memories. It
feels like working amidst family now.
Talking about his character graph, Sanjeev
states, "There were so many shades to
portray in the given character of
Vishambharnath Maheshwari. When it
started, he was a possessive father to
Akshara, and when she got married, the
father in him also underwent changes.
Later, there was the phase of being the
grandfather, and with kids settling in life,
the attitude of the character also changed.
Yeh Rishta has had great sequences, and
the best ones have been the festive
ambience created on the show time and
again. The dance and music gave us all the
positivity. The show had every flavour
except the fact that there was no negative
character as such in it.
Ask him whether he did not have
moments in these 10 years when he
wanted to do something new and he
avers, "This is a huge show with a big
cast. With so many characters around, one
needs to wait for their turn and then grab
it and perform at the best of their abilities
when it comes. Yes, there have been
moments when monotony has set in and I
have had to think about future. However,
everytime this used to happen, something
big used to happen in the show and I
would get involved in it automatically. To
tell you in simple words, the show kept on
evolving with time, and the characters too
kept evolving with the changes. Even
though monotonous moments came, it
went away quickly. Yes, patience was the
key and I am glad to have had this long 10
years journey.
Sanjeev Seth, seems like has finally hung
up his boots with respect to his character
in Yeh Rishta.
"When new families kept coming in, I
finally felt that there was nothing much
for my character to do. So we amicably
discussed about it, and I am on a break
from Yeh Rishta. I took this decision few
months back. It is not that we have
broken ties and that the contract has been
punctured. There's nothing like that. But I
am now at a liberty to pick up something
new. At the same time, whenever I am
required in Yeh Rishta, they will get me
back. But if you ask me personally, I feel
that my character has lived its life term in
the show. I am now enjoying family time,
something that I have not been able to do
these 10 years. I am looking for new
work.
Talking about his fondest memories of
Yeh Rishta, he avers, "My fondest has to be
my marriage with Lata (smiles). If Yeh
Rishta had not happened to us, we would
never have got married. Our kid is now
five years old, and the show is still on.
People walk up to me on the street and
say that they used to watch me during
their childhood in Yeh Rishta. This is such
a memorable show which has been going
on for a long time. Apart from that, I have
had great memories to cherish on the
sets, with my co-actors and the people
from the production.
Ask him about future plans and he says, "I
am being a little choosy right now. I want
to play a negative shade after playing the
goodie father for years. I actually started
my career with Campus in 1992 where I
played negative. I have also been part of
the comedy show, Karishma Ka Karishma. I
think I have got a flair for comedy too. So I
am keeping my fingers crossed at the
moment.
Last but not the least, Sanjeev had a word
of appreciation for the Captain of the Yeh
Rishta ship, Rajan Shahi. "He is the
sweetest Producer I have worked with. I
have worked with many producers in my
25 years long career. To tell you, I have
been with Rajan for one-third of my
career (10 years). He is so humble even
today, even while captaining the longest
running show in the history of Indian TV.
He is just one call away if you want to sit
and talk with him. He is all ready to discuss
anything under the sky. I wish him luck
always.
