Tu Sooraj Main Saanjh Piyaji's Avinesh Rekhi will don the look of a Sardar in the show to expose Masi sa (Sadiya Siddhiqui). Rekhi said, "I am excited to get into my new look. I come from a Sikh family and am honoured to represent my culture on screen. It has been a while since I wore a turban."
Avinesh has previously appeared in shows like Chhal - Sheh Aur Maat, Madhubala - Ek Ishq Ek Junoon, Bharat Ka Veer Putra - Maharana Pratap and Darr Sabko Lagta Hai.
'Tu Sooraj Main Saanjh Piyaji', aired on Star Plus, is a sequel to popular TV show Diya Aur Baati Hum. Since the show went on air, there have been a lot of comparison between Avinesh and actor Anas Rashid, who played the role of Sooraj Rathi in the previous show. "There shouldn't be any comparisons between actors. They did a wonderful job in âDiya Aur Baati Hum'. Now the makers have come up with a fresh story. He (Anas Rashid) is a different kind of actor. He did his job brilliantly and my character is totally different from his role of Sooraj," Avinesh said.
