Gaurav Bajaj on not quitting TV: I came to Mumbai to be an actor, not a hero
In an industry that thrives on reinvention, actor Gaurav Bajaj is quietly crafting his second act—this time on the big screen. Known for his work in TV shows such as Choti Sarrdaarni, Uttaran and others, Gaurav was recently seen in Tumko Meri Kasam. "The transition to movies has been really challenging and yes, definitely rewarding. I had to unlearn a lot of things to learn these new things." Gaurav tells us. While Gaurav brings over a decade of acting experience, the shift to film required starting over in many ways. The respect was there—seasoned technicians and co-actors acknowledged his years in the business—but he had to earn his spot all over again. "Moving to movies is a tough nut to crack. The biggest challenge is starting over in a new way. No matter how experienced you are, no matter where you come from, but when you enter films you have to introduce yourself. No matter how experienced you are… you're often a newcomer. But I got that respect from the team… from assistants to the cameraman," he recalls. One of the more nuanced battles Gaurav is fighting is the assumption game. Audiences and casting professionals often equate past roles with future potential. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like No dark spots, 10 years younger! Just take this from Watsons URUHIME MOMOKO Learn More Undo But Gaurav has always been driven by a desire to act—not to chase stardom. "People tend to box you in a certain image based on your past work and what characters you have played. But in cinema, their thought process is why only this person? So, they give you a chance. .. There's a lot of difference between a hero and an actor. I've always been very focused towards why I came to Bombay. I came to Bombay to be an actor, not a hero. Stereotypes exist, but I believe your right choices and consistency help change those perceptions," he explains. Despite his dive into film, Gaurav is not turning his back on his roots. His respect for television as his foundation is unwavering, and his openness to OTT and future TV projects reflects a modern actor's mindset—fluid and fearless. "Quitting TV? Not at all. I don't think I will ever quit anything. It's storytelling and it's evolving. Today, as an actor, it's not limited to one medium. I have done OTT, I'm exploring films… but TV is my foundation. I'll always respect that," he concludes.

Ishwak Singh on A-list male actors not taking up female-led films: Every actor has the right to choose their roles
Ishwak Singh has had a mixed year until now as he started 2025 on a high with Paatal Lok season 2 co-starring Jaideep Ahlawat, but his return to the big screen, Tumko Meri Kasam, failed to resonate with the audiences. However, the actor wrapped up the shoot of his upcoming film Gandhari with actor Taapsee Pannu, and has another web series up for release, which make him hopeful about the future. Many A-list male actors shy away from taking up female-led projects like Gandhari. With him being a part of it, ask him of his opinion and Ishwak Singh says, 'Every actor has the right to choose their roles and they can have a whole lot of reasons. To be number one on the call sheet can be for some. I don't know what those dynamics are. I am also headlining projects, so I know the difference in being number one and number two.' The actor adds, 'Creatively, if you've got a larger arc, you get the biggest canvas and you get the opportunity to not just get more eyeballs, but also to improve and showcase your craft. Of course, it comes with other benefits of remuneration but also the risk of good and bad fingers all pointing at you.' He says that he wouldn't have said no to Gandhari, irrespective of his position: 'It's also about the director. I wanted to work with Devashish Makhija for the longest time. If Anurag Kashyap or Vidhu Vinod Chopra also call me tomorrow, I would say yes without any second guesses.' But does the insecurity of being second to another actor hits him? 'On stage, I have seen actors with just four scenes turning out to be scene stealers. Good writing and good storytelling expands your thinking too. You think about the experience you will have and not these other factors. With this approach, I don't get trapped in that mousetrap, and then it also opens me to big makers,' he responds. Ishwak gained widespread acclaim for his work in the 2024 release Berlin, which made rounds at international film festivals and even bagged him awards abroad. However, the film eventually skipped a theatrical release in India and the actor admits that he was disappointed by it. 'I've seen Berlin six some times on the big screen and thought it was an excellent theatrical experience. But it found its way on OTT and it really saddened me. It's not every day that you get an award, out of all the places, in LA, with legends on the jury giving you an award out of all the Asian films as the best actor. Berlin also won the best screenplay, that means it is a special film,' he says, adding, 'You develop a sentiment for the film that it will get its due and larger audience, but it wasn't meant to be. It saddens you deeply but it's not the end of the world. As my mentor says, if you can do it once, you can do it 10 times.'
