Karan Mehra stages comeback with Colors’ Shubharambh

Popular television actor Karan Mehra, who became a household name after playing the lead role of Naitik Singhania in Star Plus’ long-running show, Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai, is set to stage his comeback on the small screen. The talented actor has been roped in to play a pivotal role in Colors’ successful show Shubharambh.

Spilling some beans on his character in Shubharambh, Mehra tells an Indian publication, “I was waiting for a good script, and when I was offered this role in Shubharambh, I immediately gave it my nod. I am playing a judge in a competition, and the character is different from my previous ones. While viewers have so far seen me in softer roles, this character is serious, virtuous, and morally upright.”


The actor made a brief appearance on Star Plus’ show Ek Bhram…Sarvagun Sampanna last year. He was seen on a fiction show after a long time. When asked about how much he has been enjoying his time away from television, he tells the publication, “I have been enjoying fatherhood, and Kavish is my greatest joy. However, it is now time to get back to work, and I am thrilled about facing the camera again.”

Karan Mehra is married to model-actress Nisha Rawal. After a courtship of six long years, the couple walked down the aisle in 2012. They welcomed their first child, a son, in the year 2017. The actor took a long break from acting to spend time with his son, Kavish. Shubharambh marks his comeback to fiction.

Produced by Shashi Sumeet Productions, Shubharambh stars Mahima Makwana and Akshit Sukhija in lead roles. The show has been arresting audiences’ attention ever since its grand launch in December, 2019.

Joaquin Pedro Valdes on finding his place in London and challenging stereotypes in British theatre

Highlights

  • Filipino actor Joaquin Pedro Valdes left a career in filmmaking and advertising to pursue musical theatre in the UK, following his first love for the stage.
  • Now playing Benny in RENT, he wants audiences to see the character as a complicated human being rather than simply the villain.
  • Valdes believes Asian representation in British theatre has improved, but says producers and creative teams still have a long way to go.

Filipino actor Joaquin Pedro Valdes spent nine years working in filmmaking, directing commercials and advertising before deciding to pursue the one passion he could never leave behind. Theatre had been part of his life since childhood, but turning it into a full-time career meant leaving Manila, moving to the UK and rebuilding his professional life in a new country.

Now performing as Benny in the West End production of RENT, Valdes is drawing on his own experiences of ambition, financial pressure and belonging to explore a character who is often dismissed as the musical's antagonist. For him, Benny's story is about more than money. It is about someone who once belonged to a community but chose a different path in the hope of building a better life.
