But I always wanted to play a strong character and Balarao Joshi was one such character I was quite intrigued by. He was a rebel by nature and stood by his loved ones. Initially, when I got selected for this show, I had second thoughts about going full bald for the role, but the production house made me understand the authenticity of the character and the significance of Balarao in Kashibai’s life in the show which swayed me to play the role.
