Darshan Pandya
Darshan Pandya who plays Mona's love interest in Balaji Telefilms' Kya Huaa Tera Vaada has seen rough patches in his career. Darshan was popular for the role he played in the serial, Aapki Antara.
But Darshan struggled in between. Says the actor, "After Aap Ki Antara, I was getting a few roles. But I had already portrayed those on screen. I was out of work in between. I wanted to do something different because I was being offered the same roles. I would rather take up a 9-5 job. That was a tough period for me. I was dubbing and doing plays. Luckily I was not so greedy, so I could survive".
The actor has been wanting to play a lead role but is happy playing Vineet in KHTV. "I have got more visibility through the show and general audiences are appreciating me. But what I'm the happiest about is that industry people are liking my work and that holds a different meaning. That appreciation is special. We all actors are insecure and we have to approach people for work. It happens to all. If the show does well on air, then you are liked. The minute it goes off air, no one cares".
