Ankit Siwach has been roped in for the digital version of Ishq Mein Marjawan 2. It’s curtains for the TV show, which is being spruced up for its outing on an OTT platform. Siwach plays a gangster in the drama, featuring Helly Shah and Rrahul Sudhir.


Ankit wants to nurture himself as a fearless actor. "I am open to exploring whatever kind of roles that come my way. I believe this is the best phase to experiment and get to know myself as an actor and a person. I want to nurture myself as a fearless actor," he said.


He feels it's a great time to be on TV. "The TV industry is ever-evolving and is undergoing a different growth at this point of time. Big investments are being made on VFX and show setups. I just hope that we work on content that not only involves, but evolves the audience in their choices," he said.


Talking about his role, Ankit tells IANS,"I am playing a larger-than-life character on the lines of classy, wicked, charming gangster villain. The character is called "Vyom". There is an artistic inclination within the layers that he has. And I was looking for something which I have not attempted earlier. A stylised international gangster was definitely on the list."

The show would soon make transition from television to an Over-The-Top (OTT) platform. The actor says that it would help the show in many ways. "OTT gives creative liberty to the makers, the edit pattern and treatment is also different from regular television shows. IMMJ has been doing great till now, hope that the show grows even more with time. And the more audience will get to see this."

He further said,"I feel IMMJ is a brand in itself, the first season was immensely popular while the second season has also lived up to its expectations. Kudos to the creators who know what it takes to penetrate a show directly into the audience's hearts. A combination of love, thrill and revenge is something the audience is always hungry for."

Ankit was last seen in the show "Beyhadh 2" just before the lockdown last year. The actor would also be seen as the lead in the film "Banaras Vanilla".
