Ashish had literally shocked me like anything

I was like is it really him??

I know abt his body transformation but this one was an extreme transformation!

Sply his arms look like a woman's arm (his biceps are gone😲)

His voice is sweet n not his usual husky voice 😆

And he looks so pretty, his eyes are lovely ❤️

I think it's the first time any main stream TV actor has dared to try such a thing

Hats off to Ashish!!

He is definitely the most versatile actor on TV

No one can come close to him sply after Khejdi

Khejdi is very close to my heart: Akash Pratap Singh

Talented actor Akash Pratap Singh, who has enthralled audience in shows like Haasil and Shaadi Jasoos, is all set towin hearts on the big screen.

Akash will be part of Khejdi, the upcoming Hindi movie scheduled to be released on 24 May, 2018. The movie is directed by Rohit Dwivedi and will feature Ashish Sharma and Yashraj M Jadhav as lead characters.

Talking about the film, he shares, "Khejdi is very close to my heart because it's something where I took a lot of time to get into the look of the character and catch the perfect accent. The whole process of workshops that I, Ashish bhaiya (Sharma) and our teacher Yashraj sir, who is also a primary part of the film had together been amazing. This was something that we don't get to do on TV. Also one of the most important reasons is that my nani passed away just before the shoot started and I was in a mess as she was really close to me. But at that time Archana di (Taide) who is also my Producer encouraged me and told me to do it for her. Lot of effort has gone in as where we stayed was a proper village with no TV. We shot in a desert but at the end we were all working for a great script.

He continues, "What is not us, we fear.. What we fear, we despise.. What we despise, we destroy.. Let's embark on a journey to discover your identity. This is the theme of the film. It is the story of self discovery and journey of a person with this society.

When asked what attracted him to the film, he says, "I was actually driving to Yashraj casting for an audition when I got Archana di's call and she told me that she has seen my work on TV and is considering me for the part. And then she narrated the script.Without even thinking, I said I would do it if I pass the audition. Then, I auditioned and was immediately finalized. In fact, she said you are only doing this character.

So how was your experience working with Ashish Sharma? "It was very nice right from the first day at his place where I went for the workshop. He is extremely humble, talented, fun loving at the same time very hardworking which inspires me a lot.

Good luck for the film!

Television actor Ashish Sharma, who has wowed us time and again with his characters of Ram and Rudra Pratap Ranawat, is all set to play a transgender in his next project Khejdi'.

Ashish has been making headlines for his quite experimental choices in the roles lately, especially after he featured in Sony TV's magnum opus Prithvi Vallabh. After wearing the hats of the peerless Rama in Ramayan, a warrior poet in Prithvi Vallabh and a romantic army man in Rangrasiya, Ashish is all set to play a transgender now.

The actor took to his social media to shared the poster of his upcoming film, where he plays the titular role of Khejdi. He captioned it saying, "What is not us, we fear. What we fear, we despise. What we despise, we destroy. Let's embark on a journey to discover your identity. #KHEJDI Premieres on 24th may 2018."

While many actors get quite apprehensive to play these roles, Ashish has always been very open to challenges when it comes to acting. Talking to Tellychakkar.com Ashish said, "I was not sceptical at all. That's not my criteria to look for work. Right now I'm in a space where I want to enjoy my work. Now I want the world to see the kind of work I want to be part of and how well I can pull them off. I want to part of stories and projects like these," he explains, adding, "It was fun."

Khejdi has been written and produced by Ashish Sharma and his wife Archana Taide and is all set to be released on May 24. Ashish revealed that it was his wife Archana who convinced him to play the role.
