Sushant Singh, crime reporter and protagonist Vasudha's (Smriti Irani) love interest in Sony's Virruddh on Sony Television is busy shuttling between the sets of this soap and Ram Gopal Verma Ke Sholay.

It so happened that the production team of Virrudh required Sushant's voice recorded for some last-minute changes in the dialogues but as he was busy shooting for RGV; he could not come to the Viruddh sets. Knowing the time constraints of our serials, the team dared to go to the Sholay sets, albeit skeptically, to record the actor's voice. Reliable sources inform that they were pleasantly surprised when RGV welcomed them and allowed Sushant to record the required dialogues for Viruddh.

In the Sholay remake, Sushant plays the role of Sambha. His filmy debut was as Pakya in Satya and then he went on to do several roles in films like Josh, Lakshya, Paisa Vasool, Shikar but became popular as Sukhdev in the Legend of Bhagat Singh. As for his comfort level with Ram Gopal Verma, this is not his first with the maverick director - he has earlier been featured in RGV films like Jungle, Kaun, Darna Mana Hai and now RVG Ke Sholay.

No wonder with such a wonderful and accommodating RGV, Sushant has taken up acting in serials, which is a demanding and time-consuming field.
