‘Don’t Think Mumbai Police Did a Great Job,’ Says Sushant Singh Rajput’s Chhichhore Co-actor

“I accepted the role of Saxenaji in Bhabiji Ghar Par Hain because of Sushant Singh Rajput. He proved that a television actor can also become a huge movie star. Earlier, I was not taking up television assignments due to the fear of getting labelled a TV actor. So I continued doing ad films and kept pursuing a film career. But when I saw Sushant, who was doing Pavitra Rishta at that time, transforming into a movie star with Kai Po Che, I thought that if he can do it, I can do it,” said Saanand.

He has another connection with Sushant, one that directly links them by their roots.

“He (Sushant) is from Patna. I am also from Patna. I’m extremely grateful to Sushant for being my true inspiration,” he said.
