Actor Sahil Anand, who began his career as a contestant on the MTV reality show Roadies 4, has signed on to star in an upcoming streaming show to be made in Bhojpuri. Yes, you read that absolutely right! The actor is set to play the male lead in the show titled Saiyaan Magan Pehelwani Mein.
Confirming the same, Anand said that he was initially hesitant to accept the offer as he did not know the language.
"I was hesitant before taking this up because I did not know the language. But I, as an actor, would want to be a part of all the content made in all the languages. All the big actors have been a part of Bhojpuri cinema like Amitabh Bachchan sir or Dharmendra ji. As an actor, I would want to see myself everywhere, "the actor said.
Spilling beans on his character in Saiyaan Magan Pehelwani Mein, Anand said, "I am playing a simple Bihari guy who wants to marry his girlfriend, but her father has a condition of first proving it to him by becoming the wrestling champion of Bihar. It is a very comical show, but I am not doing any comedy. The character is very serious, but the audience is going to have a ball while watching it."
More details are expected to arrive soon.
