BR Chopra's Mahabharat, which aired between 1988 and 1990, has returned to the small screen. The epic 139-episode-long series, even after decades of its release is enjoying another successful run on Colors channel, featuring actors Gufi Paintal, Puneet Issar, Nitish Bharadwaj and Rupa Ganguly among others, to overnight stardom. However, there is one more actor who essayed the character of adolescent Sudama and was recognized later for his role. He was none other than actor Sumeet Raghvan, who later rose to fame amongst TV audience as Sahil Sarabhai with the show Sarabhai vs Sarabhai.

Sumeet was 16 when he played the character of Krishna's friend, Sudama in Mahabharat. As a teen, he had no inkling that the show will create history. Sharing about his experience, Sumeet said, "I was very young when I bagged the role, and as excited as any new kid on the block. I was quite skinny at the time, probably that's why I got the role! (laughs)."
