Special shout-out to Jio Studios for instilling their faith in me to play a role so drastically different from my personality.

Crafting lengthy courtroom speeches was particularly demanding, but thanks to the support of an exceptional team, the journey was incredibly smooth. Working with Manish Paul was great, and our on-screen dynamic resembles the classic Tom and Jerry relationship throughout the season.
