Aditya Deshmukh, who is known for his role in Ghum Hai Kisikey Pyaar Mein, celebrated his birthday with the media. During the celebration, he shared insights into his career, his struggles, the leap in the show, and the differences between TV and films. Here's what he had to say:
Talking About the 20-Year Leap in 'Ghum Hai Kisikey Pyaar Mein'
Aditya expressed his gratitude towards the audience for their support. He mentioned, “I’ve been waiting for a big break, and finally, it’s happening. Ghum Hai Kisikey Pyaar Mein has such a beautiful story. When I was doing Natti Pinky Ki Lambi Love Story on Colors TV, I got a call for the first season of Ghum Hai Kisikey Pyaar Mein, but I couldn’t take it up as I was already committed to the show. Later, when season two came, I was working on Ziddi Dil Maane Na. Then, for the third season, I was doing Lag Ja Gale and Suhagan. Now, with season four, working alongside talented actors like Param Singh, Sanam Johar, and others has been an amazing experience. The atmosphere on set is wonderful, and working with everyone has been a lot of fun.”
About His Character in the Show
Aditya shared some details about his character in the show, saying, “When I was offered this role, the brief description reminded me of Saif Ali Khan's character from Hum Saath Saath Hain — someone who can make jokes and lighten the mood even in sad situations. However, there is a difference. My character doesn’t have a good relationship with his sister, but he’s a family man who loves spending time with his loved ones. He believes that a family should always stay together, eat together, and do everything together. It’s a beautiful concept, and I’m excited to explore the different aspects of this character as the show progresses.”
Differences Between TV and Films
Talking about the differences and challenges between TV and films, Aditya said, “There’s a big difference in how TV, films, and web series are treated. In television, you work 12 hours a day, and you have a lot of dialogues and roles to cover, all within a specific time frame. In films, you have the opportunity to work on your character and take your time to really live that role. In TV, if a show runs for 6-7 years, you end up doing the same thing every day, whereas in films, you get a limited time to portray your character. One advantage of TV is that your family can quickly connect with your audience, and viewers can instantly see if you’re doing something right or wrong on social media. In films, it takes time for reviews and reactions to come in, but with TV, fans are emotionally invested in your journey and they watch every step of the way. We have to be careful and mindful of that.”
Social Media’s Influence
Aditya also shared his thoughts on the growing influence of social media, saying, “Post-lockdown, social media, especially Instagram, has become the new medium for promotion. Nowadays, actors are cast based on their follower count, which I think is wrong. I’ve seen many actors with large followings, who aren't necessarily great actors. If you bring a YouTuber into acting, not everyone will be a good actor. We have to understand that influencers and actors belong to different leagues. We can be actors, but we can’t necessarily be influencers or YouTubers. Now, actors are asked to make reels as part of promotions, which helps increase the show’s reach. Earlier, promotions involved press conferences, but now everything is digital. People are adapting to this trend, just like we used to talk about Gen Z.”
Birthday Plans
When asked about his birthday plans, Aditya shared, “I never plan my birthday. It just happens. I feel very lucky. This year marks my 12th year in the industry. For the past 11 years, I’ve celebrated my birthday on set. After work, we usually go out for dinner, or sometimes we have a family dinner at home.”
Message to the Audience
Finally, Aditya expressed his gratitude to the audience, saying, “I just want to say thank you for all the love you’ve given me through so many shows. Keep supporting me, keep watching our show, and thank you so much for making my birthday so special by sending your wishes and showing so much love.
