Actor Durgesh Kumar gained immense fame after working in the Jitendra Kumar starrer Panchayat. This series treated him as a lead actor and not just a supporting character. Now, in a conversation with midday.com, Durgesh opened up about his journey in Panchayat, his decision to work in a B-grade film, his perspective about OTT platforms, and more.
The actor started the conversation by talking about his journey and how he landed the role of Bhushan. He shared, “There is an assistant director named Navneet Ranga. He called me and said, ‘Dada, there is a web series in which there is an audition for the photographer of Fakoli. There is one scene.’ So, I went and gave the audition for the photographer of Fakoli, which was later done by the writer of Aspirant. At that time, he called me and said, ‘Dada, there is one more scene, will you do it?’ So, I said I would do it. That scene was of Bhushan. So, I did that. After doing that, some time passed, and I heard that the casting for the second season of Panchayat was going on, but I wasn’t sure if they would take me or not. Then I got a call from Gulshan Ji, who is the associate casting director. He told me that my role had increased and it had been 20 days. Then, after that, I got to know that I was in the third season as well.”
