Gautam Singh Vig to be seen in Sargun Mehta and Ravie Dubey’s show Dalchini



Last seen as a musician in Junooniyatt, which wrapped up in November last year, Gautam Singh Vig will soon be seen in Sargun Mehta and Ravie Dubey’s Dalchini. He will play Tej Dhillon’s (Rohit Chaudhary) stepbrother in the show.

Gautam says, “I play the son of Tej’s father, Param Dhillon, from a woman with whom he had a relationship several years ago. Param left her for Rajrani (Maninee De). My character is back in his life to seek revenge and claim what he believes is rightfully his.”

Currently planned as a cameo, the track’s future will depend on the audience’s feedback. Gautam says, “I have allocated a couple of weeks to the show before heading for a movie shoot. Once that wraps up, we will decide based on the feedback received for my track.”

As an artist, he enjoys taking up characters that offer him the scope to perform irrespective of the shade. He explains, “An actor has the chance to explore much more when portraying a double-shaded character. I prefer such roles over those where the character is relegated to standing like a piece of furniture. Male actors often have limited opportunities in TV shows, as the medium predominantly focusses on women-oriented shows. So, I look for characters that allow me to showcase my acting and perform.”

In his pursuit of taking on substantial characters, Gautam continues to balance television and films. After Hukus Bukus, he is gearing up to commence shooting for his next film project. Interestingly, he will once again portray the role of a musician in the movie. He says, “The story revolves around a struggling musician who becomes a national crush, and it depicts how things take a downturn for him as success gets to his head. It serves as motivation for people on how to rise back up.”

Now that he is receiving offers from films, does he plan to shift to the medium? “I go with the flow. Most of us eventually aspire to enter films, but I will keep my options open until I secure a substantial role. I am realistic about not getting multiple opportunities to make a mark in Bollywood, so I am patiently waiting until I land a good project. I owe my success to television and will always hold it in high regard. TV serves as a workshop, and I continue to take up TV shows to enhance my skills and upgrade myself. Acting is a performing art, and without regular performance, growth is limited,” he concludes.
