An actor’s ego should be hurt when he cannot deliver, not by the length of his role Ashutosh talks up about Aranyak, his character, and his various sides. He also opens up about breaking stereotypes and the actor’s ego. The proud father of two also reveals whether his sons have also shown interest in acting. Raveena Tandon made her digital debut with Netflix show Aranyak which dropped on Friday. The crime thriller has already found takers due to its nail-biting storyline and thrill factor. Apart from the 90s star, it’s Ashutosh Rana who caught everyone’s attention in the trailer.

you started with negative roles. Did you fear being stereotyped and how challenging was it to break out from that image? By staying away from the temptation of appreciation and money. One has to steer away from it to be able to work according to their satisfaction. They also need to have patience. I have always believed that I will work and earn enough to give my family a comfortable life. Cashing in on something will make you earn a lot but you will lose mental peace. Also, I never wanted to be part of the rat race. As far as negative roles are concerned, I always did those with a positive attitude. And that is the reason I have films like Dushman, Sangharsh, Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhaniya, Mulk, Simmba, Sonchiraiya, or more recently Pagglait and Chhatrasal. I may have played grey characters in all of them but each one is so different from the other. I don’t judge characters as negative or positive, I only look at them as performances.
