Amazon miniTV recently released a series titled - The Adventures of Lleo. Featuring Anandeshwar Dwivedi as Lleo, it takes us through his adventurous journey filled with unusual survival tricks, and hilarious one-liners, making it a fun watch. Known from the popular series, Permanent Roommates, Anandeshwar Dwivedi, opened up about the preparations he did while writing and playing Lleo on-screen. Anandeshwar said, ``The writing was the main task for this project actually, we did most of the preparation for it. We were writing about Lleo after such a long time, and it was the tough part to write about a character that we are not accustomed with. So most of the work and brushing up was required in writing, for acting I was ready familiar with the character. So when I was writing about it, that made the work easier. We had to create a bizarre world which is also believable, so that people watch it with interest. A story of a person who becomes a millionaire all of a sudden and then loses his possessions, so to show how he is living his life, dealing with situations and to make it entertaining for viewers as well. For me this journey was more satisfying as a writer as compared to being an actor. We always say that writing is the base, and if it is not good, it wont come out as what you wanted it to be. If the script is good, believable and interesting, it makes the work of the actor much easier. So I would say as compared to acting, the writing part was more challenging.”
