- Mandar spoke about his acting skills in an interview and said,
Acting is in my blood. My father was an actor and director in the ’90s, but he quit the industry for some reason. My brother is working in the Hindi TV industry and garnering a lot of love from the audience. My wife is also an actress. I have grown up in such an environment where I have seen these insiders since my childhood. Our entire family gives advice and criticizes each other, and that’s what keeps us inspired.”
