‘Aarya’ actor Manish Chaudhari applauds his co-star Sushmita Sen and director Ram Madhvani

Actor Manish Chaudhari who is best known for his character of Sunil Puri in Rocket Singh , has done notable work in films like URI , Satyamev Jayate, Batla House, By pass road, Bazaar , Mohenjodaro , Raaz 3 and Jannat 2 has currently been lauded for playing a pivotal role of Shekhawat in web series Aarya.

Talking about his rapport with Sushmita Sen, he said, "Sushmita and I had some difficult scenes together which involved a level of physical violence. To make these scenes as natural as possible, Sushmita and I had to have all our guards down and just go for it! She was a very willing and energetic ‘partner in crime’. I really enjoyed working with her."

While appreciating the deries director Ram Madhvani, Manish Chaudhari elaborated upon his creative process, "Ram Madhvani’s process as a director is very immersive and organic. For me it has been a great delight as this process brings a sense of immediacy to the scene as if it is all happening in reality right at this very moment! This sense of reality and immediacy carries forward to the audience. He asked me to delve into the ruthlessness of Shekhawat with a sense nonchalance but also to ‘GO FOR IT’. As an actor I am always looking out to work with directors who are passionate about their process, craft and storytelling. I have been looking forward to work with Ram since the time he made LET’S TALK almost 20 years ago and I loved what he did in Neerja. And when Aarya finally worked out I was ecstatic.”

Manish has had a long stint as an actor and done some praiseworthy roles.

“ I have been acting in television and film since 1996 when Sudhir Mishra gave me my first break. It took me another 14 years to get truly recognised for my role of Sunil Puri in Rocket Singh-Salesman of the year. Since then I have had the pleasure of doing a varied number of characters both on cinema and television. It makes me feel ecstatic that my journey of reinvention as an actor is being recognised and celebrated in the web series Aarya,” he said.

Next you will see him on a series directed by Alankrita Srivastava and produced by Endemol Shine India and also in another web series on SonyLiv.
