'Pavitra Rishta 2.0' actor Shaheer Sheikh has been getting immense praise for the show. He has been cherished and authorised by the audiences as Manav, a character that become made universal within the old season by means of actors like Sushant Singh Rajput and Hiten Tejwani.

In a heartfelt conversation with Prateek Sur, Shaheer Sheikh talks about why relocating away to Indonesia for 2 years on the top of his career didn't trouble him, why he prefers to be a family man, why he doesn't have large stardom dreams, and what he ended up studying throughout the lockdowns. Excerpts: 

You've been within the television trade for practically 12-13 years. Do you feel you've accomplished the variety of stardom that you just had been hunting for for those who all started appearing? 

No. No manner. I in no way concept i might be an actor nor do I wish to become the greatest celeb or anything like that anything or achieve that stardom. that is precisely what americans could be asking me after I began my profession as to where do I see myself and say 5 years or 10 years. i might all the time come to be announcing that I want to see myself as an improved son, a much better accomplice and now a stronger father as neatly. life is more important for me than the work that i'm doing. I just wish to do my job and go back home. If I do my job accurately, possibly i'll get one more assignment. If the following day somebody needs me to direct, i might direct. 

Why do you keep a low profile, chiefly if you happen to know that out of sight is considered out of intellect here?

it's as a result of I need to supply time to myself. it truly is precisely what I retain telling americans as smartly. during this race, we are inclined to overlook to are living. We should give time to ourselves and our relatives. talking about being out of sight, i was out of sight for two-three years. i was in Indonesia. It didn't do any hurt to me at the moment. Over there also I had a really low profile. I simply believe that when you are doing all of your job properly, it truly is greater than adequate.

i used to be speaking to Ankita (Lokhande) as well, and she too observed that after television actors go out for film auditions and all, there's a bias in the means television actors are appeared upon. have you ever faced anything identical? because you too need to be getting film offers or ought to be giving auditions for films…

I have no idea if i will be able to touch upon that, but whenever a person has called me for an audition, I even have long past. every time someone has shown their perception in me, that they think that i will pull off a character, I actually have had respect for that. I even have achieved two motion pictures but in Indonesia and nothing in India. I suppose television has given me satisfactory. I don't believe as if some thing is lacking in my lifestyles. I actually have been entertaining audiences from everywhere. If a person wishes me in the future (in their films) they are going to call me, in the event that they don't need me, i am happy in any case.

What has been your one big researching via this lockdown?

that you deserve to eat clear, and yoga is very effective. Meditation and yoga helped me a great deal. honestly, my subculture has changed a bit on account of the lockdown as a result of I may apply all of that. I might cook dinner. I could deal with myself. Plan my day therefore. So the lockdown has changed lots of things in my lifestyles.
