Karan Wahi is an actor who is known for his works on various television shows. Despite having worked on some of the most prominent shows, did you know he once aspired to make a mark in the film industry? He took on roles in movies like 바카라˜Daawat-e-Ishq바카라™ and 바카라˜Hate Story 4,바카라™ but did not choose to pursue a career in films thereafter.

Recently, during the promotions of his upcoming show 바카라˜Raisinghani v/s Raisinghani,바카라™ he discussed the reason behind the same in a conversation with Indian Express. He emphasized that he finds playing a smaller role on TV more 바카라œimportant and effective바카라 than venturing into the film industry.

He was last seen in 바카라˜Hate Story 4바카라™ in 2018. When inquired about his decision to not be involved in the film industry anymore, the actor explained, 바카라œYes, there was Bollywood work, but there were times when the films didn바카라™t materialize. At the end of the day, I just don바카라™t want to do a film for the heck of doing one. It is fun to watch yourself on the 70mm, but I would rather play a small part on TV which is important and effective, than just be a property on film screen and satisfy my ego that I did a film.바카라 He added, 바카라œAll of us want to know what we are doing when a script comes to us; it could be the biggest film, producer, or director, but if I am not doing much in the film, after that I will anyways not get anything offered. That바카라™s why it is not been pursued; it바카라™s not like nobody wants to work.바카라

In addition to discussing his heavy interest towards films, the 37-year-old model also emphasized the ever-changing preferences of the Indian audience, while confining his belief in the future of OTT. 바카라œOur Indian audience is used to coming back to a character over and over again. On TV, unfortunately, there are certain restrictions you have to abide by. OTT breaks those norms. I feel OTT is the future. Unfortunately, we give credibility to certain platforms, and that norm should completely change.바카라

As an actor, who has worked on every OTT platform, he also said that actors take up a project primarily because of the script and story more than anything else.

Presently, Karan Wahi is sharing the screen with his 바카라˜Dill Mill Gayye바카라™ co-star Jennifer Winget in 바카라˜Raisinghani v/s Raisinghani,바카라™ which is available for streaming only on SonyLIV.
