Riteish Deshmukh is creating waves across platforms!
Riteish Deshmukh is certainly on a roll! The actor, director, producer, entrepreneur, and host wear many hats. After the success of his last release ‘#Ved,’ it’s clear that there’s seemingly nothing that this multifaceted talent can’t do.
Interestingly, “Pill” on Jio Cinemas, being his digital debut, has garnered an impressive 4.5/5 average viewer rating and 8.2/10 on IMDb, praised for its stellar performances, specifically by Riteish who brought depth to the narrative.
Adds Rajkumar Gupta- I had great experience working with Riteish. I was really impressed by his approach to how he builds the character in his head, and then transforms it while performing. What was also impressive – in spite of being in the industry for so many years and part of so many successful films he has not taken his success for granted…He is dedicated, disciplined , works hard and always keeps trying to excel at what he does .
Proving his versatility yet again, Riteish took on two vastly different characters, each showcasing his extraordinary range as a performer. While his character in ‘Kakuda’ exudes exceptional energy, the other from ‘Pill’ embodies a calm, composed demeanour of a common man to take over the system. This stark contrasting character brilliantly portrayed by Riteish highlights his unparalleled versatility and commitment to his craft.
Adds, Aditya Sarpordar, I have been very lucky to have worked with Riteish Deshmukh, the producer, & also as an actor for almost over 10 years. I have seen a man who has been extremely passionate , dedicated towards Cinema as a whole. I am very happy that he is doing parts that are showing range as an actor like the parts in his debut web series Pill & the Kakuda. I find myself lucky to be able to find a chance to work with him and I am sure with Pill, Kakuda and his forthcoming releases that are lined up, we will see a lot more of him. Summing up , Riteish Deshmukh is a gentleman of a man who you find in the industry who has extreme amount of passion and commitment to his job, who is respectful of his job & the people he works with and has got infectious energy when he is around.
To top it all he took the baton to host the new season of Bigg Boss Marathi. The ratings and the reviews both have been overwhelming. This new season is turning out to be the biggest ever for the channel.
Adds Alok Jain, Viacom18, “Riteish Deshmukh’s electrifying transition from the silver screen to hosting Bigg Boss Marathi is a testament to his boundless passion and infectious enthusiasm. With every episode, he captivates the audience, bringing an unparalleled energy that sets the show on fire. Coupled with his gripping performance in the OTT series Pill, Riteish’s versatility truly knows no bounds.”
After his latest releases, “Pill” on Jio Cinemas and “Kakuda” on ZEE5 and on going Bigg Boss Marathi the audiences, and especially his fans, are eagerly awaiting Riteish’s upcoming Riad 2 where he plays an antagonist and takes on Ajay Devgn and his much anticipated directorial magnum opus Raja Shivaji.
