Being Siddhant

Anuj Rampal, who has been a known face in the theatre world, is currently basking in the glory of his OTT debut on Amazon Prime —Akkad Bakkad Rafu Chakkar.

The show has been received well by the audience and Anuj has been getting a lot of appreciation for his acting chops, especially his comic timing.

Talking about his character, Anuj says, “Playing Siddhant was immensely satisfying. Siddhant is a brother who’ll always have your back. A friend who’ll always be there for you. A lover who’s ready to take the leap for you. It is very easy to fall in love with him and I’m sure the audience would love him a lot. A fun loving, chirpy, energetic boy who is carefree in his approach to life.”

Talking about bagging the role and working on the project, Anuj says, “Auditions! First, I got a call from Nisha and Mittal casting team to test for a character. I sent two self-tests over a period of 15 days post which they asked me to come down to Refuel’s office. I did another scene there in front of Raj sir and Aman post which they asked me to do two scenes with Vicky. That’s when they knew they had found Siddhant. Raj sir has immense belief in people. That belief is what made me maximise my performance.”
