Bhuvan Bam: I have grown up watching his work

Bhuvan on collaborating with Satya actor JD Chakravarthy for his next

Bhuvan Bam’s upcoming web show, 'Taaza Khabar', features actors including Shriya Pilgaonkar, Telugu actor JD Chakravarthy, Deven Bhojani, and Marathi actor Prathmesh Parab. The association of Chakravarthy and Bhojani has been of particular significance for Bam, who has “grown up watching” their work.

“JD Chakravarthy sir’s character in Satya is unforgettable. And Deven Bhojani has been an iconic figure in the Gujarati theatre scene. Every day, I had to put in my best to [match] their levels. Working with such big names has been a dream. Seeing it come true feels great. Being on sets with JD sir was nostalgic because [Satya] was a cult classic. He is down to earth, and is such a giving actor. When we first met on the sets, I expressed my admiration for his work,” says Bam.
