Exclusive | Kunj Anand on debuting in TV with Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi 2: 'It was a completely new experience for me'

Recalling his very first day on the set, Kunj shared, “It was a completely new experience for me. The energy on the set is very different—there’s a certain pace and spontaneity that keeps you on your toes.”

Comparing the medium with his previous work in OTT and films, he added, “In OTT and films, you get a lot of time to prepare, rehearse, and experiment with your character. Television is more fast-paced; you have to adapt instantly while still delivering your best. It pushes you as an actor to be more instinctive and sharp in your performance.”

On being asked about the audience feedback, he says, "The audience is loving the camaraderie in my on-screen family, and I’m enjoying their curiosity for the next episode. Their excitement keeps me going,” he adds with a smile.

With his effortless charm and a strong portfolio across OTT and films, Kunj Anand’s presence in the show is surely making the fans wait to see what’s next.
