Gunahon Ka Devta was the first TV show for AS.It aired from September 2010 to May 2011 on Imagine TV, a GEC run by NDTV. The series was produced by Shyamasis Bhattacharya of Shakuntalam Telefilms.
It was an engaging tale of love & passion, emotion & deception set against the devastating background of crime. Ashish played Avdesh Singh Thakur, a layered character, tough, angry and ruthless, the local Robinhood who looted the rich to help the poor.It was his first role as a male lead and he did full justice to it.The contrast of emotions was beautifully expressed through his eyes which blazed with fury at times and at times carried intense love for his lady love.He could touch the hearts of the viewers with his superb acting skills
The story unfolded in the heartland of the Hindi belt, and Ashish played a heartland hero, complete with aviators, rolled up kurtas and Tata Sumos with gusto and heart.
It was his first step towards a glorious acting career.
Chandragupta Maurya was his second show.It aired between March 2011 and April 2012.
Ashish entered the show after the childhood period got over.The show was appreciated for its superb storyline and content. It had some of the finest actors and he made his presence felt through his dedication and excellent acting skills. As usual he gave his 100% to the role. He learned taek-wondo, kalaripayattu and horse riding in addition to working out to bulk up for the role. Unfortunately the show ended abruptly as Imagine TV shut down.
His third show Rab Se Sohna Isshq aired between July 2012 and June 2013.
It gave Ashish an opportunity to show to the world how versatile as an actor he could be.Ashish literally went through acting boot camp in the show. As Ranveer, he was initially a carefree guy obsessed with his dream to go to London to make a big fortune, who later turned into a con artist of sorts, and then into an unwilling perpetrator of murder, and above all, a devoted lover. Ranveer was so brilliantly played by him that he was reprised in two more roles in the same show. He was the cornerstone of the show.
Rangrasiya aired on Colors from December 2013 to September 2014.
Ashish played the role of Major Rudra Pratap Ranawat, the brave, reckless BSD officer. He prepared for months for this role, both physically and emotionally, going deep into the psyche of the character. From working out, growing a moustache and staring out of the window in silence for hours he crafted the persona, the quirks, the personal signature of Major Saab. In doing so, he swept the population off its collective feet. He said in an interview that he loved everything about Rudra, because he created him.It was a classic example of bringing a character in a script to life, to larger than life. Rudra was a career defining role for Ashish,
Ashish portrayed a mindboggling spectrum of emotions, using both powerful monologues and eloquent silences to daze the viewers.He breathed life into Rudra and that is why he won the hearts of all those who followed Rangrasiya.He created fans for life through this show.

He left everyone marveling at his writing skills Ashish always ended the show with a self composed poem and that became a kind of hallmark for the show.
Siya Ke Ram was aired from November 2015 to November 2016.
What a magnificent role had Nikhil Sinha offered to AS.He had envisioned Ram in Ashish and he rose to accept the herculean task and played it to perfection.He prepared diligently ,body n soul.It was THE most challenging role for him .
He ,an intense actor ,had to portray the role of a God.Eyebrows were raised in disbelief, but we all witnessed how his handsome face exuded a comforting sense of peace and warmth in us.This perfection was achieved by giving attention to every smallest possible detail,he transformed himself ,inside out. The variations in his tone and timbre were commendable.
His eyes lent a touch of serenity and tranquility to his entire form..The varied emotions that he emoted so beautifully helped him win numerous accolades ...He, through his superb and convincing portrayal of Ram; helped people change their perspective towards Ram.
