While being lenient, he is also the superman for his children as makes the little things matter like bringing them their favourite gajak, chikki, moongfali and fruits.

Talking about the show and his character, Rajesh Kumar shared, “I have always been drawn to relatable yet complex characters, and my role as Sanjay Awasthi is no different. It was fun playing the character you can connect so much to, and it’s also incredibly rewarding. I loved and enjoyed being taken back to the 90s era, right from riding the Vespa scooter to handling relatable situations back then which are not seen anymore. The show will help viewers reconnect with their family roots, in today’s fast-paced, technologically driven world. The show focusses on the dynamics of the quintessential Indian family in the 90s era. It’s been an exciting and fun journey for me”.
