Ekta is a great mentor: Gautam Gupta

Gautam Gupta, who became popular as Radhika Madan’s brother in Meri Aashiqui Tumse Hi, has now bagged the lead role in Ekta Kapoor’s next Kuch Toh Hai Tere Mere Darmiyaan. The actor tells us that he will continue to be part of Meri Aashiqui. Excerpts from an interview:

 

There is so much responsibility that comes with playing a lead. On the earlier show, I was at ease and now, I need to be very sharp with my work since the camera is always following me. The burden has increased since the show depends on us more than anyone else. Having said that, it feels amazing. I am more focused today.  

 

Both the shows are a part of Balaji. They are the most cooperative people I have ever worked with. They are managing my schedules so that I am able to keep up with both the shows. I hope it continues the same way.

 

Madhvan is a South Indian boy who is born and brought up in Jamshedpur. He is hard working and ambitious until he falls in love. He would probably rate love over everything else and his only purpose in life is to love Koyal.

 

Ekta has given me a chance to do what I want in life and I am thankful to her for that. I can never forget what she has done for me. Everybody knows she is a successful person, but the time and energy she puts into her work is incredible. She is a great mentor and an amazing friend.

 

Yes, of course. I’d like to work in films but I’d also like to go with the flow. I think TV has become big; I am still exploring what it has to offer.
