Highlights
- Adulation of fans has never put pressure on Hrishikesh Pandey, as the seasoned TV actor feels people are more crazy about the character rather than the actor.
- "In TV, people like your character and appreciate you. So all this should not affect me as a person. The fans are basically only crazy about the character. The problem arises when you don't realise that," he told IANS.
- Pandey has been a part of shows like Kohi Apna Sa, Saakshi and is currently seen in C.I.D. The actor calls himself lucky to be associated with the show.
- "I am proud to be associated with this show. When I forayed into television, C.I.D was already on air. After that I did many shows and fortunately I was lucky to keep getting offers, but C.I.D is C.I.D," said Hrishikesh.
- The show has been there for so many years and has such huge fan following. "Other shows have a limited fan following, but C.I.D, people from all age groups love it. The reach is so much," he added.
- Another show very close to his heart is his first show Kohi Apna Sa.
- "The first show is always special, which was Kohi Apna Sa for Zee TV. I was new and I learnt a lot from the show," he said.
- Asked about the sudden inflow of talent in the television industry, the actor said he has a lot of respect for people who are doing good work today.
- "At the end of the day, what matters is survival. There are people who are good. Stardom is a skill, you can do great or be one show wonders. I appreciate people who have been there and have been working. But I guess everyone should have their chance," said the actor.
- Hrishikesh seems to be satisfied with the C.I.D at the moment and is not looking for any other shows.
- "Offers keep coming. But at the moment I am happy with CID, there is no question of doing anything else," he said.
