Rohan Vinod Mehra

In 2018, Rohan Vinod Mehra made his Bollywood debut with Baazaar, starring as parallel lead alongside Saif Ali Khan. After the mainstream debut, however, the actor hasn’t been seen on screen as frequently as one would have expected. Last month, he caught the audience’s attention with his performance in Bejoy Nambiar’s web series, Kaala. When we sit down to chat with him, our first question naturally is: how does he view his five-year run? “Since I didn’t play the conventional game of promoting myself, people assumed I haven’t been working. But the truth is I have been working every year since my first film. I pride myself that every opportunity I have landed has been my own doing,” he states.
