Vaibhav Raj Gupta: OTT Has Given Me Wings To Fly, But I Would Love To Do Good Feature Films Too

Vaibhav Raj Gupta was last seen in SonyLIV web series, titled 바카라Good Bad Girl바카라, and it also featured Samridhi Dewan and Gul Panag. 

Actor Vaibhav Raj Gupta is fondly remembered for his character of Annu in SonyLIV web series 바카라Gullak바카라 and he followed it up with his grey character of Shankar in Sakshi Tanwar-led 바카라Mai바카라, which streamed on Netflix. Recently, he featured in another SonyLIV web series, titled 바카라Good Bad Girl바카라.

The nine-part series on SonyLIV, directed by Abhishek Sengupta and produced by Vikas Bahl and Anurag Shrivastava, revolved around the life of Maya Ahuja (played by Samridhi Dewan) as an underdog lawyer. The show, which also stars Gul Panag, features Vaibhav as an urban lawyer Sahil Mistry.

Talking about why he picked up 바카라Good Bad Girl바카라, Vaibhav tells Outlook, 바카라I have been waiting to do something in an urban setting because I wasn바카라t getting a role like that. I always want to do different characters. I played Annu for 바카라Gullak바카라, then to have a change, I did 바카라Mai바카라 where I played a goon. I was looking for a change, and fortunately, there are some casting directors who see beyond the usual. After hearing my part, I loved my role, he is a rich urban lawyer. That바카라s how I ended up doing my character Sahil from 바카라Good Bad Girl바카라.바카라

From short films like 바카라White Shirt바카라 and 바카라Jitters바카라 to featuring in OTT space, the actor has made a mark in the entertainment space now. But how is he taking his newfound success? Vaibhav says, 바카라I have just started but I have really worked hard for whatever is there so far. It바카라s been 13 years for me in Mumbai, and almost after working for a decade, I have seen that people recognise me, they love my work and are also willing to work with me. I don바카라t have to go door to door to ask for work. Now by god바카라s grace, I am getting work. OTT has been a blessing for all of us, and I want to choose my projects now.바카라

Of course, his characters of Annu, Shankar and Sahil have been different from each other. Elaborating on how he prepares for his roles, Vaibhav tells us, 바카라Every script has its own method. I read a lot and I do so many things in life, not related to acting, and it helps a lot to get a perspective. For 바카라Mai바카라, it was a challenging role for me because I had done nothing like Shankar. Same goes for 바카라Gullak바카라 or 바카라Good Bad Girl바카라. I watch a lot of cinema, end up travelling or reading literature. That바카라s how I function and learn.바카라

The actor is content with his OTT stint but 바카라would love to be part of a good film, waiting for that opportunity바카라. He says, 바카라I have done a film for Netflix in 2017, titled 바카라Ascharyachakit!바카라. So yea, I really like that space. Coming to OTT, it has given me wings to fly though I still want to do a film. OTT has its freedom and opportunities, the reach is big globally. I am just looking for good work, exploring myself through my characters. 바카라
