- He joined a law college in Mumbai to learn more about the Constitution of India and to prepare for his role Dr B. R. Ambedkar in the TV serial, ‘Ek Mahanayak Dr B. R. Ambedkar’ (2019). In an interview, he shared about his role in this serial, he said,
Well, I auditioned for the role and got it. Earlier I used to know about Baba Saheb Ambedkar as much as all the common people know through the textbooks of school, but there is so much more to his story. When I got the role, I started reading about him, his biography and also his autobiography which was amazing and eye-opening. I truly believe that his story needs to be told and only in a series format because it’s a huge story and I don’t think a film or a documentary can do justice to it. I think it’s a huge responsibility to play such a character and when you get the opportunity, the first thing to do is to know everything about the personality and every detail about his life. Knowing about him is the basic job that I’m doing right now, apart from that, looking like him is my goal. I had lost a lot of weight before this show and apparently now I have to gain a lot of weight. Not just that, but I have also enrolled myself in a law college in Pune, just to know a bit about the Constitution.”
