Yes, I play the main protagonist in,’ Dhara 370.I may take this opportunity to state that I did a few films especially because the film was being produced by Ekta Kapoor and I am close to Balaji.I am in this industry because of Ekta Kapoor.So needless to state I could never refuse to do any role in Balaji Productions.
Hiten Tejwani may have done a few roles in films like,’ Krishna Cottage’..Shorgul but his latest was “Kalank” which proved to be a dud at the box office…Hiten is in a happy space professional as well on a personal level after being married to Gauri Pradhan…” Yes, I think I am in for doing varied roles. Now days we have ‘OTT” platforms and content is the king. I just finished, ‘Karle Payar Karle season 3.”Probably, if Kar Le Payar Kar ‘Season 4 will start, I will join the cast as well. I always wanted to do different and meaningful roles thus during these 16 years of my journey, I never wanted to play only the main lead kind of a role.But now with my next flick,’ Dhara 370’ I can say this is my debut film with a strong character and content as well.’
Giving a sneak peek about his forthcoming film,’ Dhara 370” which also stars Zarina Wahab, Anita Raj, Raj Zutshi Hiten confirms,” Yes, I play the main protagonist in,’ Dhara 370.I may take this opportunity to state that I did a few films especially because the film was being produced by Ekta Kapoor and I am close to Balaji.I am in this industry because of Ekta Kapoor.So needless to state I could never refuse to do any role in Balaji Productions. I play the main protagonist in Dhara 370.I am happy that this I could be consider as my debut film. I play Kashmiri Paundit.The content of this film is the most talked about subject in today’s Kashmir and all over the World.”
Elaborating about the content in film,’ Dhara 370 which holds an important issue Hiten says,” There are many stories floating in and around Kashmir and all over the globe with regards this subject- Dhara 370.” The film also has a love story…The content of Dhara 370 is totally different to film,” Kedarnath.It has a love story of a KAHMIRI Pundit boy and a Muslim girl..But the subject issue of Kashmir where this Dhara 370 is prevalent, the film mostly talks about it. For more details we will need to watch the film though.’
So will Hiten be able to bring successful box office collections being the solo hero in Dhara 370 we quiz? Look, I am playing the main lead, but having said that, we have intelligent and strong ensemble cast –From Zarina Wahab to Anita Raj and Raj Zutshi who plays the villain in the film. I feel more than star studded film the content is king.Good content sells now days. So the content of Dhara 370 with all these great actors the film cannot be said to be shouldered only by me. I met Anita Raj who is working on the celluloid after a long gap .Watching her act and performing to the,’T’ was indeed a refreshing feelings. With this ensemble cast and crew also Director Rakesh Sawant I must confess has done meticulous research on the subject matter and the issue written well, directed with utmost care …we are just waiting to get a good censor certifications.”
Last but not the least.” I am open to doing web series and films at the moment. I have never said no to television. But I am looking forward to get different roles. I do not intent doing those same angry young man kind of roles. I have another film titled,” Nobel Peace.” It is a proper festival film and has garnered great eye balls by the foreign film makers.Also have read a few more scripts which I will zero down after I come back from my family holidays …I am flyng off to London with my kds and Gauri
