Sahil Phull who took a two-year break in 2017 is all set to play the male lead in TV show Kaatelal & Sons. His professional life suffered after he went through a difficult break-up and lost four members of his family within a year. But Sahil never gave up on his dream to be the lead in a TV show. Despite all the delays and difficulties, his dreams are finally turning into reality.
Sahil was last seen in ‘Haiwaan: The Monster’. In an interview with BT Sahil talked about his role as the male lead in Kaatelal & Sons. He says, “It has taken six years of hard work and determination with one goal in mind, which was to play the male lead. I am happy to have reached that stage in my career. This is the first time I am playing the lead after I returned from my break. My last outing in the lead role was in Uttaran.”
Sahil got the opportunity after Ankit Mohan quit the show citing creative dissatisfaction. Sahil further adds, “I am not worried about joining the show midway, as it’s a different character. I will play Agni, which is an exciting part. The graph of the character is different from what I have played so far on TV.”
When asked if he is worried about being compared with the previous lead Sahil said, “Ankit was creatively dissatisfied and it was his prerogative to quit the show. I can’t say much about that. All I know is that I am playing a new character. So, there is no scope for comparisons between the two. I am excited about this journey and glad that the year has begun on a good note for me. I’ve happy that I have finally fulfilled my dream of playing the lead character in a TV show,” he signs off.
