Mridul Sharma
Tell us about your role in Delhi crime.
I played the main culprit Jai Singh in Delhi crime. Jai Singh is the changed name of Ram Singh. Ram Singh was the main accused in the 2012 Nirbhaya rape case. Professionally, he was a bus driver.
How did you land the role?
I had given my introduction in the MCCC (Mukesh Chhabra Casting Company), and I was called for an audition. Based on my look for this character and so on, and then my selection was done. Yes, there are so many actors in Mumbai who have long been waiting for some big character and with the blessings of God, I was fortunate that I got the opportunity to show my talent.
