Sachin Parikh: From Stage Lights to Spotlight
New Delhi [India], June 26: In a world where many chase the spotlight, Sachin Parikh stands apart as an artist who let the craft guide his path. From Gujarati theatre to the big screen and now into the world of OTT, Sachin's journey has been anything but conventional — yet deeply rooted in passion, legacy, and performance. Born and raised in Mumbai, Sachin Parikh was never far from the world of performance. With a father who was an avid theatre enthusiast, storytelling ran in his blood. Though his academic path led him to a degree from Narsee Monjee College and a General LLB from Jitendra Chauhan College of Law, destiny had other plans. Even while working a regular banking job, Sachin never abandoned his first love — the stage. His initial acclaim came through Gujarati theatre, where he delivered powerful performances across countless plays for over two decades. One of the landmark moments in his theatre career was his portrayal of Krishna in Kanji vs Kanji — the play that inspired the hit Bollywood film OMG – Oh My God!, with Akshay Kumar stepping into the same role on screen. Other celebrated plays include Masala Mami, Saiyer Tu Aave To Janu, and Dikro to Wahi ni Thapan, each showcasing his natural command over stagecraft. Sachin's foray into television and cinema was a natural extension of his theatrical roots. Over the years, he's shared the screen with industry stalwarts like Aamir Khan (PK), Ajay Devgn (Dil Toh Baccha Hai Ji), and Manoj Bajpayee (Aligarh). He also portrayed Brij Narain Kaul in Main Atal Hoon alongside Pankaj Tripathi — a role that brought both dignity and presence to the screen. His roles have spanned diverse genres and formats — from television serials like Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah, Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai, and Pushpa Impossible (where he played the beloved Manish Parikh) to web series such as Karm Yuddh, Avrodh 2, and Crackdown 2. International audiences also took note of his talent in the global series The Most Beautiful Hands of Delhi. Most recently, his portrayal of Prabhat Singh Chauhan in Vasudha on Zee TV has won him praise for its depth and emotional maturity. While Bollywood opened its doors to him with films like Bajrang Aur Ali, where he played Ali, it's his upcoming Gujarati film Vahali that has his heart. 'As a father, the script of Vahali moved me deeply,' he says. 'It speaks of the beautiful bond between a father and daughter. It's emotional, romantic, and rooted in family values — something I connect with as a parent and an artist.' Parikh's choices reflect a quiet confidence in storytelling over stardom. He gravitates toward roles that speak to him emotionally, often taking on characters with layered depth and maturity — the kind that demand more than just performance, but understanding. With The India Story — his next film alongside Shreyas Talpade and Kajal Aggarwal — on the horizon, and Vahali ready to resonate with audiences, Sachin Parikh continues to redefine what it means to be a versatile, rooted, and emotionally intelligent actor. Sachin's powerful return in front of Gujarati audiences with Vahali marks a special milestone — a comeback that feels both personal and cinematic.

Sachin Parikh from Vasudha on International Tea Day; says "Chai has always been my constant companion"
International Tea Day , celebrated on May 21st, honours the rich history, cultural significance, and global impact of tea. As one of the most consumed beverages in the world, tea brings people together across continents and traditions. This day also recognises the efforts of millions of tea workers and small-scale growers who play a vital role in the industry. It's a moment to reflect on sustainability, fair trade, and the shared joy found in every cup. On this special day, actor Sachin Parikh from Vasudha talks about his love for tea and shares memories related to it. Sachin Parikh, who essays the role of Prabhat in Vasudha said, "Chai has always been my constant companion—whether it's during rehearsals, long shoot days, or those peaceful moments at home. No matter how hectic the day gets, it helps centre me. Every single morning, without fail—whether I have an early shift or not— I make the first cup of tea for the whole family." He further added, "Some of my fondest memories are those simple moments, sipping tapri wali cutting chai with friends in Mumbai. Even on the sets of Vasudha, during breaks - the cast, spot dadas, director sahab and the team all come together to share a cup, catch up, and enjoy a little pause in the chaos. This International Tea Day , I plan to make breakfast for my family and surprise them with my special masala chai — because chai, for me, has always meant love and togetherness."
