Taher gets a taste of his popularity
Taher Mithaiwala, who plays Viraj Singh Rathore in Nisha Aur Uske Cousins, is on cloud nine these days.
The actor, who has been drawing rave reviews for the portrayal of his character, recently got a ‘taste’ of his popularity. We hear around 30 school children have flown down from Tanzania, especially to meet him.
Taher says, “I was extremely shocked but touched when the kids came on the set with gifts and a cake. The kids had come without their parents and had taken special permission from their school, parents and community to actually come to India to meet me.
They found out my parents’ number and contacted them and that is how they got the address of my set. It was really sweet of them to have flown down all the way to show their appreciation for the character I play on screen. What more can an actor ask for?”
