Actor Zaan Khan is enjoying being part of the ZEE TV show Humari Bahu Silk. Produced by Klay Picture, the soap opera hit the airwaves on 3rd June. Khan plays the role of a Gujarati boy on the show, who is pressurized to join the family business.
Revealing more about his character, the actor says, “I am playing the role of a Gujarati boy who is very passionate about his photography, but his family conditions are such that his grandmother wants him to continue with the family business. The character has different layers and shades, a boy who wants to continue with his passion but due to the circumstances at home, he turns into a mature man, willing to take responsibility.”
Talking about the response that he receives from fans on social media, Zaan Khan says, “I get many comments from my fans. They often tell me that they are really liking my work. During emotional scenes, people message me that they were literally crying when they saw my performance. Not only the youth but even aged women, my family and relatives love my work. I am doing my best. Let's see what happens.”
When asked if he relates to his character at all, Khan says, “Not at all, because Naksh and Zaan are poles apart. I am very happy-go-lucky, chirpy, energetic, go-with-the-flow kind of a guy. But this character Naksh is a deep thinker and so there are no similarities, which is the best part. If there had been any similarities, I wouldn't have enjoyed playing the character,” he says.
The show, which began on 3rd June, is now gearing up to clock 100 episodes. “I don't know about TRPs much but everybody loves drama and if the storyline is interesting then people wait the next day to see what will happen. The audiences get hooked on, so drama is important. I am happy that show is completing 100 episodes. Audiences are loving the current drama a lot,” he says in conclusion.
