Actor‑turned‑director Harshit Joshi shared insights on his move to acting for the upcoming series 'Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi 2', discussing the challenges and motivations behind the shift.
Harshit Joshi, known for his work behind the camera, recently opened up about his decision to step in front of the lens for the new television series "Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi 2".
In an interview with The Times of India, Joshi explained that the transition was driven by a desire to explore storytelling from a different perspective. He said that acting allows him to connect directly with audiences and bring characters to life in a way that directing sometimes keeps at a distance.
The series, a reboot of the popular 2000s drama, is set to air on Star Plus and follows the lives of a modern family navigating tradition and change. Joshi’s role as the patriarch’s son‑in‑law is expected to bring a fresh dynamic to the ensemble.
Looking ahead, Joshi expressed enthusiasm about balancing both roles. He hopes to continue directing projects while taking on selective acting assignments that challenge him creatively.
