Producer Siddharth Malhotra recently announced the 3-year leap in his popular show Sanjivani and this has gotten viewers across the nation excited. Now, the producer has revealed that the protagonist of the show will be replaced and the talented actor Gaurav Chopra will join the cast in the leading role opposite Dr. Ishaani.
Talking about the show, Siddharth said, "We were sure that the new addition has to be someone nuanced who will be the perfect partner for Dr. Ishaani after all she goes through in the show. He will play a key role in her life as she battles her emotions and learns to grow out of her pain. We will see the foundation of a new relationship being built and Gaurav is absolutely perfect for it."
Elaborating on Gaurav’s character, he adds, “Gaurav will play the new parallel lead. He is a rich well-educated investor, who is the new owner of Sanjivani. He values relationships over materialism and has aunique way of getting things done. He is respectful towards women and the marginalised. He respects doctors and is obsessed about the well-being of patients.”
Sharing his thought on the role, Gaurav Chopra said, “Last year when I was doing Devdas, Siddharth had come in and seen it with his wife. That's when he mentioned that he had something in mind for me. He called me soon after and had a very clear idea about my character. I heard about the role and I could very easily imagine myself doing it. In their words, they were looking for somebody to bring in some gravitas into the story and also a new relationship with Ishani - the protagonist of the show. As far as coming on board after two other senior actors - Rohit and Mohnishji, I can't say too much because their tracks have ended before I’ve entered. I am here to spearhead this new change, this new phase, this new story and of course I’m excited! And a little anxious to see how the audience reacts. Fingers crossed!”
Gaurav Chopra has been recognized as one of the popular actors in the industry. He has previously worked on multiple shows including Uttaran and Bigg Boss on television, Love, Lust and Confusion on the web and has also portrayed key characters in films including the Oscar-nominated Blood Diamond.
As the new lead in Sanjivani, Chopra will be the love interest of Ishaani as she recovers from the deep hurt caused by her fiancé.
