Piyush Sahdev is excited to play a cop in Mauka-E-Vardaat- Operation Vijay

What attracted you towards acting?

I was a shy kid, and never in my wildest dreams, I thought of becoming an actor. But my mother always saw great potential in me and wanted me to join this industry. With time I gained confidence, and my mother’s dream eventually became my passion.

How does it feel to be associated with the crime show, Mauka-E-Vardaat- Operation Vijay?

It feels fantastic as I am quite fascinated by crime series. The series features villains with supernatural powers committing mind-boggling crimes against humankind. The show offers high-voltage drama, suspense and blood-curdling criminals.

What makes your character stand out?

I am essaying the role of Inspector Piyush Rathore. Piyush is obsessed with solving crime mysteries and saving the world from villains with superpowers. The most favourite part about the character is its look. Apart from this, I enjoy the opportunity to wear the uniform and do all those action sequences.

How has been your experience shooting for the show so far?

The experience has been wonderful. Acting is my passion, and living it every day is no less than a beautiful dream come true. I am learning new things every day.

What does the show have in store for the audience?

Crime and fantasy genres are quite interesting and intriguing. Crime provides a lot of suspense and thrill, while fantasy, on the other hand, gives us the liberty to go beyond our imagination and present something out of the ordinary.

This role is quite different from the characters you’ve essayed in the past.

Of course, every character is different. It is not the first time I am portraying a cop’s role. The look here is quite different. I found the concept fascinating. A new super villain and a new mystery unfolding in every episode will keep the audience hooked.

How have you prepared for your role?

When essaying a police officer’s role, fitness is an important factor. So, I focus on my fitness, maintaining a regular exercise regime and eating healthy. I had grown a moustache.
