In India, he is known as musician Palash Sen’s son. But in the West, Kinshuk Sen is known for featuring in the Broadway musical, Come Fall in Love: The DDLJ Musical, and Mira Nair’s Monsoon Wedding The Musical. Not many can boast working with Aditya Chopra and Nair so early on in their career. For the actor, it is a dream come true. “I have watched Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge [1995] at least 20 times. So, to play the role of Kuljit and be directed by Aditya sir, whom I have always idolised, was a ‘pinch-me’ moment. Aditya sir was so kind and encouraging. The project gave me the debut of a lifetime,” smiles Kinshuk.
