Danish Pratap Sood had three compelling reasons to join Naam Namak Nishaan: fulfilling his father’s wish to join the army, the script itself, and the opportunity to play the protagonist. In the Amazon miniTV series, Sood portrays Gurbaz Singh Kahlon, an army cadet. “My father wanted to join the army but never got the opportunity despite trying several times,” Sood shares. He adds that, despite completing his MBBS, the opportunity kept slipping further away from his father.
While his father never pressured him to join the army, he did want him to experience the life of a soldier. “Several things drew me to the show, like the script, an [unexplored] subject, and the depiction of brotherhood. We often discuss how a war unfolds and how a cadet becomes an officer, but we rarely explore the mental pressures that a cadet faces [in the force]. I was intrigued by the idea of wearing the uniform. Playing the protagonist also pushed the envelope for me,” the actor shares.
