It has been over a decade for Ranndeep R Rai in the television industry. While he has seen his fair share of ups and downs, the actor in him has only forged ahead with conviction, leaving the rest up to God, he shares. He became a popular name after his stint in Yeh Un Dinon Ki Baat Hai. He followed it up with Balika Vadhu 2 and Bade Achhe Lagte Hain 2, though both shows didn’t fare as well as expected. When Rai was offered a role in Anupamaa, he says he had no reason to say no, but plenty of reasons to say yes to the Rajan Shahi production.
“It was a grey character, something I had never done and no one imagined me doing. I was always cast in the boy-next-door or lover boy roles because of my soft looks. This was a chance to experience something new. Secondly, I always wanted to join Director’s Kut Productions because they have been known to deliver remarkable shows like Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai. And Anupamaa is the biggest show in the country right now, so I agreed to come on board,” shares Rai, adding that the production house didn’t really give him much time to make a decision as they wanted to lock the cast as soon as possible.
