So that’s how I landed up getting one of the three mischievous boy’s part.”

They are great actors who know their craft well. Saqib Saleem made me comfortable in breaking that star image I had for him in a fight scene with him.”
Sachin also shares about the challenges he faced as a new comer. He reveals,”It was very challenging for me to convince my parents that I want to take acting as a career until Kota Factory happened and my father’s boss watched it and praised for me. I shifted to Mumbai when everybody was shifting back to their hometowns. I shifted right before the Second lockdown in mid of March 2021 and lockdown happened in April. It was difficult to find work for a few months because the world was standing still.”
Lastly he adds about his future aspirations stating,”I am very much fascinated with the villains and grey shade characters, they are the hero of their own story. I want to play a villain which has many shades.”
