Anupamaa’s Aashish Mehrotra had sleepless nights over current track
Anupamaa actor Aashish Mehrotra revealed in his recent interview that he has sleepless nights due to the current track of him cheating his wife in the show.
Ever since the Star Plus programme Anupamaa started airing, it has managed to top all other shows in terms of audience engagement. Every new plot gets a lot of attention, but Anupamaa’s current storyline has been grabbing attention for all the right reasons. The fans have praised the characters for their outstanding performances and interest in what would happen to Kinjal and Toshu’s marriage moving forward. Toshu, aka Aashish Mehrotra, admits in an interview with ETimes TV that he broke down in tears before Rupali Ganguly when he read the upcoming plot of the show before performing it on screen.
Speaking of his response to the ongoing narrative he added, “The makers have been extremely supportive and helpful, this was one of the most difficult tracks for me while performing.”
Aashish acknowledged that he was more worried about the audience’s interpretation of the plot and how they would respond to Toshu than his performance. The show is now addressing the issue of extramarital affairs.
