Namit Das

That comedy comes naturally to Namit Das is evident in his choice of roles over the years. After playing a string of happy-go-lucky characters, including the lead role in Sumit Sambhal Lega — the Indian adaptation of Everybody Loves Raymond — the actor is experimenting with his dark side in Viu's latest offering, Kaushiki. Ask him what prompted him to take on a negative role and he says the decision was driven by a simple impulse, "To tell the world I can do more than comedy".
