Striking a chord with the masses playing the character of Lord Krishna in Mahabharat, Sourabh Raaj Jain is back too soon on television with Chandragupta Maurya.
Sourabh who was last seen in Mahakali as Lord Shiva will break all stereotypes as he has been signed on to play the baddie in his yet another association with the director, producer Siddharth Kumar Tewary, which is the culmination of mega-series Porus which will mark the beginning of a new chapter in Chandragupta Maurya.
Sourabh jokes, "I have worked with this unit for the longest part for my previous shows so they're kind of amused around me on the sets. This particular role is tricky to pull off so even when I'm not in a shot, I'm making an effort to wear the character like a second skin & behave a certain way to get the hang of it & own it one day. This role requires me to be perpetually high on energy, so off camera, I'm joking around to everyone's surprise. They see me differently now & I'm secretly enjoying the process."
"I'm thoroughly enjoying my part. I'm trying to break free from the image of God, something I have been wanting to do. There was always an unsaid responsibility to act a certain way when I played the role of Gods on television as viewers get involved & attached. I'm happiest about the fact that I won't be giving anymore Gyaan now. I am a wacko on the show, it'll be fun," adds Sourabh.
Apparently, the actor has already begun shooting & reportedly taken the sets by storm by his rather unusual behaviour.
