Sharad Malhotra says, ‘The best compliment I got so far for Vidrohi is that I am looking the character perfectly!

Apart from giving one successful show after another, actor #SharadMalhotra has also gained prominence in the music video genre too…His songs #BepanahPyaar, #HaloReHalo, even the latest one, #DoorHoGaya, are hits. As an artist, Sharad has always been particular about the projects he associates himself with and follows the same outlook while choosing music videos.

“The very first thing is that I have to feel things aesthetically. I love music, listen to different kinds of music all the time. So, when somebody sends me the audio track I hear it for the first time and while listening to it I decide whether I want to do it or not. I kind of get the vibe, I feel I have a strong sixth sense that really came in handy when i decided to be a part of Bepanah Pyaar, Bepanah Ishq, Halo Re Halo, door ho Gaya .. all these songs have done extremely well, some with numbers and some really struck a chord in people’s hearts, says the actor. He is presently playing the leading role in Vidrohi.

Sharad hopes that his sixth sense works in the future as well. “There are a few more tracks that I’m working on right now. Suddenly everyone wants me in their music videos (laughs), and I am not complaining. I think there is a period of time in everybody’s life when you’re trending. It’s a phase that I am thoroughly enjoying,” continues Sharad, who has also written, composed, and sung a song with his dear friend Roxy, who happens to be his Guitar teacher…Hopefully, it will see the light of the day very soon.

The actor has been receiving a number of offers since the lockdown phase got over. “During the pandemic honestly everything was dull, slow. A lot of people were not working. I think post-pandemic I got a lot of offers from TV, web and even music videos. I think the moment everything opened up, I totally got into action. Those 5-6 months sitting at home wasn’t an easy task, that too for people like me who have been working non-stop for years now…I am so used to working, can’t just sit at home (laughs again). I feel my mind is conditioned that way. Thankfully, by the grace of God, things got better when unlock was initiated and people started to go back to work,” he says.

On being asked about Vidrohi he says, “I am getting excellent response. The buzz of Vidrohi is good. The show is creatively satisfying. Subrat Sinha and Dr. Bodhisattva have made a good show. The best compliment I got so far is that I am looking the character perfectly. I want to explore my career opportunities.”
