Krishna Kaul has made his entry into Sairaab midway through the show, stepping into the already established role of Ishan. In an exclusive conversation with mid-day, the actor opened up about the pressure of taking over a character that audiences are already emotionally invested in, his chemistry with Madirakshi Mundle and his approach to choosing his next project after Kumkum Bhagya.

On entering a show midway and the responsibility that comes with it, Krishna said, “I think responsibility comes with every character you play. For me, the best way to deal with pressure is to focus on the work.” He added that he wanted to understand Ishan’s emotions, relationships and personality rather than focus on the comparisons surrounding the role.
