Anuj Arora on ‘Koi Jaye Toh Le Aaye’: Web Series Reach a Wider Audience

Anuj Arora, who has proven his acting prowess with shows like Burey Bhi Hum Bhale Bhi Hum, Bandini, Thodi Khushi Thode Gham, Behenein, and the web series Anarchy, is excited about the release of his project Koi Jaye Toh Le Aaye. Initially touted as a theatrical release, it is now being released as a web series on the Atrangii App.

The actor said, “It was originally announced as a film, and when I was first approached for this project, it was supposed to be a web series. However, after the edit and shoot, they liked it so much that they announced it as a theatrical release. Now, they've decided to go back to the original idea of a web series. I’m excited about it because this is my first major lead role in a web show.”

“I believe web series often reach a wider audience since people have more opportunities to watch at their convenience. Both formats have their pros and cons, but I’m eager to see myself in this role and hope the audience enjoys my character. I remember one schedule where we shot for 36 hours straight, back-to-back. It was an intense yet memorable experience, and I’m looking forward to the release,” he added.   Talking about his character, he shared, “It’s a romantic thriller murder mystery. I can't reveal too much about the role because my character is a surprise package in the series. It's a very layered role where I get to explore romantic, dark, and positive sides. I had a great time playing Vijay.”

Series USP: Twists, Unique Locations, and Anuj's Dedication

What is the USP of the series? “The USP of the series is the numerous twists and turns that will keep the audience hooked. We've also shot in some very interesting locations, which adds to the appeal,” he said.   Anuj approaches any new project with its director’s vision. He said, “I am fully committed to what the director wanted to achieve. I delved into the character’s background and the psychological aspects of the role, understanding what had happened to him in the past.”I also work on the physicality of the character. All these elements are crucial in bringing the character to life in the way the director has envisioned,” he added.

The actor also agreed that there is intense competition on the OTT platforms. But he added, “I just feel that if your performance, story, and overall product are strong, people will appreciate it. I always felt that *Lamhe* was one of my all-time favorite films and a great movie, but it didn’t do well because it was ahead of its time. Today, if your product is good, it will get noticed, regardless of the competition.”
