No Qualms In Playing Father Onscreen: Vishal Singh

Darpan News Desk IANS, 09 Sep, 2016 12:51 PM
    Actor Vishal Singh, who will next be seen as Naitik in the popular soap opera "Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai", says he has no inhibitions in playing a father to grown-up children on screen.
     
    "I honestly have no qualms in playing a father to grown-up children. For me, it's the character that matters and Naitik is an extremely strong character," Vishal, who will replace Karan Mehra in the show, said in a statement.
     
    "I've been following this show since a while now. To be very honest, I am very excited to play the role of Naitik. Men like him are rarely found today and nothing better than playing an ideal man on screen who can definitely set an example. 
     
    "He is the perfect husband, father and son," added the actor, who has previously appeared in shows like "Dekh Bhai Dekh", "Astitva...Ek Prem Kahani" and "Parvarrish - Kuchh Khattee Kuchh Meethi".
     
    "Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai" is aired on Star Plus.
