The concept immediately excited me: Adit Srivastav on Jabb Zodiacs Met

Adit Srivastav is seen in the role of Gaurav in Ishika Shahi's new web series titled Jabb Zodiacs Met. The series, which has been produced by Rajan Shahi's Director’s Kut Production, revolves around the 12 zodiac signs and their influence on an individual's life. It went live on January 16 and is streaming on DKP's official YouTube channel. As someone who is learning about astrology and planets, Adit revealed that it was a coincidence that he was approached for the show. He was intrigued by the show since the time he learned about it. 

He said, "The concept immediately excited me. Personally, I felt that if Ishika had come to me earlier, I would have loved to work on this project even as part of the creative team. When I first heard about the show and the concept, something inside me clicked because at the same time, I had already started learning about astrology. I had a little knowledge of kundali reading, astrology, and planetary influences. I even wear certain rings according to my kundali."

He believes astrology is a very deep and genuine profession and said, "I truly believe that sometimes astrology chooses you; it’s not always that you choose astrology. At that time, it had only been two or three months since I had started learning about astrology seriously. I was reading kundalis of certain people, explaining things to them, and after three or four months, I got to know that a show based on zodiac signs was also coming up. I felt it was such a coincidence."

"I was extremely curious to know more about it and suddenly felt very happy when I heard about the show," he added.

Adit wanted to be present on all days of the shoot just to observe how people were acting, how different zodiac traits were being portrayed, and how other actors were approaching their characters. He said, "If we talk about the twelve zodiac signs, each has specific traits, colors, numbers, emotions, and behavioral patterns. I really wanted to see how all of this would be presented visually and emotionally."

"That curiosity made me wish that I could also be a part of the creative team because I had so many ideas in my mind. Still, playing the character and working on the show itself was an amazing experience, and I was genuinely happy to be part of this project," he added.

Asked if he explored his own zodiac sign when preparing for the role, he said, "My sun sign is Aquarius, my rising sign is Gemini, and my moon sign is Taurus. The moon sign represents your mind and emotions, so emotionally I relate a lot to Taurus traits. There have been times when I felt extremely low or emotional. I remember around two months back, when I was feeling very low emotionally, I ended up ordering many things online impulsively; my budget was around 15–20 thousand, but I ordered things worth almost 25–30 thousand in one night. The next morning I woke up thinking, 'What did I just do?' and canceled all the orders. I feel that is completely my Taurus moon side, emotional decisions driven by comfort."

He explained that, internally, he also connects deeply with emotions. He said, "Whenever I have deep conversations about feelings and life, I understand emotions very well, and I think that comes from my Taurus side. But personally, I love my Aquarian traits: being emotionally detached, being more focused, multitasking, and valuing freedom. That is something that truly defines me. I relate strongly to Aquarius energy."

He revealed that Gemini is also a big part of him. He said, "It gives me wit, humor, communication skills, and intellectual curiosity. That Gemini side makes me expressive and helps me connect better with people."

Interestingly, the character he played was a Gemini in the series. "I am a very moody person in real life, and that again connects with Gemini traits," he said.

"Emotionally, both my character and I are quite detached. We are not very expressive emotionally; we like to keep things private, and we don’t easily open up because once we start talking about emotions, we feel too much—and we don’t want to feel that deeply or show it. So that similarity connected me strongly to the character," Adit ended.
