Rahul Singh is another new face in Amber Dhara. He debuts on television with this show and essays the role of a blind guy called Kunal. He has just completed his Bollywood project, Ek Main Ek Tu.

An exclusive chat with the model turned actor.

My role in Amber Dhara…
I play the role of Kunal who is visually challenged and a band leader. This is a very different character as I don’t walk with the stick. I also have a strong sixth sense. Besides that I do all the work that normal men can do. He is going to help Amber Dhara in achieving their dream. I am paired opposite Dhara as her love interest and may be in future I’ll get back my eyesight.

I had done proper homework…
I went to a blind school and interacted with some children. I also watched movies like Sparsh which gave me an insight about their body language and their difficulties. It was a good experience and I love my act in the show

Medical College to modelling and now acting…
Everybody in my house is well educated. My grandmother was the principal of a college. My mother is a doctor by profession so even I thought of following her footsteps. In college I started getting modelling offers and medicine took a back seat. Then I opted for B.Com and completed my graduation. After my graduation I got an offer from a film and that is how I entered this industry.

Ek Main Ek Tu…
This movie is similar to Shahid Kapoor’s IshqVishk. There are two new girls opposite me. I can’t reveal anything but am looking forward to the release of the film.

Medium does not matter…
I could not wait for another offer to come my way and thus entered television. Swastik Pictures called me and after auditions I was briefed on my role as Kunal. I loved it and thought that Kunal can give me immense popularity thus I went ahead with the show.
