It is hard for the audience to gulp down the dramatic change in Dr. Onir’s character – Shakti Arora

Shakti Arora who essays the role of Dr. Onir in Zee TV’s Pavitra Rishta (Balaji Telefilms) as we know, is unhappy at the way his otherwise good character has been turned grey. The actor is right now feeling low with the way his track in the show is shaping up.

Explaining his grief, he tells us, “Bohot gaaliyan par rahi hai logon se.”

The actor who also hosts Brain Café on Zee Q says, “It is definitely a good phase as an actor, as I am getting more scope to perform. However on a personal note, I am not enjoying playing a grey character which with time is turning darker.”

With the revelation of Dr. Onir being already married, and with the advent of his first wife Shalini (Maneka Lalwani), Onir’s character will soon be facing wrath from all sides.

Talking about viewers’ reactions to this new shade in his character, Shakti says, “The character was so larger than life, that it’s hard for the audience to gulp down this change. They are in a state of shock.”
Ask him whether he has thoughts of withdrawing from the show, and he quickly states, “I am committed to my work and will continue with the show. In fact, I am waiting for the makers to decide on the future of my character.”

The actor who recently got verbal about his relationship with actor Neha Saxena (seen in Amita Ka Amit) has high hopes of making it big in Bollywood. “I am definitely looking for projects to star in a Bollywood film, and hope my dreams of doing a film fulfills soon.”

We wish Shakti a great future ahead.

    I don’t know whether you are acting the character of Onir so well or you are just being yourself Mr Shakti Arora , but, it warms the hearts to know that there are still people with the good values and qualities that we are all called to live by. Each one of us are called to be if a male – a son , a husband , a son-in- law , a brother, a father , a friend and the character of Onir lives up to all these relationships so beautifully and perfectly that its difficult to accept the fact that the character is turning negative. The character of Onir reminds us all of what we are called to be as human beings —good, kind , generous ,helpful etc. And Pavitra Rishta needs a character like this to give weight to the series. And I have seen Mr Shakti Arora act the negative role in Agle Janam Mohe Bitiya Hi Kijo. You are good, so all the best to you in Bollywood …

    Well we at least don’t find the show monotonous as with many other series. The shock is good just that the grey image doesn’t suit Onir very well. But who knows we might grow to like his new image. Its just what a series needs that element of surprise. I really am enjoying watching it even if the audience may not agree with everything it does work. So long as it keeps the audience coming back for more.
