Sometimes subtle, sometimes loud, at times his intensity is seen only in his eyes — That’s Vishal Vashishtha for you. The actor, has quietly made his presence felt, on television for eight years, and now in movies and web shows. 

In Netflix’s Glory, the actor sheds his familiar boy-next-door image to play Arvind, a Haryanvi cop trying to find the truth while battling personal turmoil. Instead of turning him into “the typical Haryanvi bossy police officer”, Vashishtha chose restraint over aggression until hell broke loose. “I had to speak this language, but without the tone and sarcasm that all of us know of. So, that became tricky,” says the actor, admitting that he took help from his father, who grew up around Haryanvi culture.
