While some actors get to play short yet impactful characters, there are some who are seen in long-term roles, which in turn increases their association with the show. Actor Aakash Ahuja, who plays the lead role in Sargun Mehta and Ravie Dubey’s Badall Pe Paon Hai, which is produced under their banner Dreamiyata Entertainment Private Limited, feels both formats have their own benefits.
He said, “I think both types of roles have their own appeal. A short and impactful character can create a memorable moment that sticks with the audience, but a long-term character allows for more depth and growth.”
“Personally, I enjoy playing a character who evolves over time because it gives the viewers a chance to connect with them on a deeper level. In Badall Pe Paon Hai, all characters—whether big or small—contribute meaningfully to the story and its message,” he added.
His show Badall Pe Paon Hai revolves around a woman with big dreams for herself and how she battles the obstacles she faces while trying to give her family a better life. Aakash feels that his show is doing more than just entertaining, adding, “It’s inspiring people to reflect on their own lives and decisions. One thing I’m proud of is how we are motivating both men and women to support each other, especially in their dreams and goals.”
He continued, “We’ve received messages from viewers who’ve been touched by the way our characters handle challenges, especially how we show respect and equality in relationships. Also, we aim to inspire young girls to pursue education and follow their dreams, no matter what challenges they face.”
So how do you think your show stands apart? “Badall Pe Paon Hai stands out because it brings a balance between family drama and personal growth. It’s not just about relationships but also about individual journeys,” he said.
“The lead female character’s fight for education and independence makes the show unique and inspiring. As the male lead, my character’s support for her dreams also adds a fresh dynamic compared to traditional portrayals of men on TV. Our show offers a modern take on relationships while staying rooted in core values,” Aakash ended.
