What do you think of the title of your new show Janam Janam Ka Sath?

The title is self-explanatory, as it sums up the storyline very well.

Content is the king, right?

TV’s content is definitely evolving owing to OTT platforms. It’s a competition of ideas now.

What do you like about a daily soap?

The best thing about a daily soap is that you get to immerse in a character. It becomes your second skin.

Competition in the industry is increasing. How do you view that?

I agree that competition is increasing by the day, but there’s space for everyone here.

Do male and female actors get equal footage in TV soaps these days?

There used to be a time when daily soaps were female-centric, however, these days it solely depends on the story.
