MUMBAI: Rohan Mehra is known for portraying Naksh Singhania in Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai and Sameer Kapoor in Sasural Simar Ka. In 2016, he participated in the reality show Bigg Boss 10.

Rohan has put himself to the test by playing the negative role of Ibrahim, a casanova, in ALT Balaji’s Class of 2020. It isn’t just acting that Rohan manages to perfect, the actor is the perfect all-rounder with a strong sporting background. Not only has he worked on his physique and looks for the character, but also underwent a special badminton training for a particular scene in the series.

Talking about the same Rohan shares, 'In this series, not only am I portraying a Casanova but also, I had a badminton scene in the show where I’m playing the part of a professional player. Back in my childhood, besides being a national-level table tennis player, I did play a bit of badminton as well so that did help me a lot. The scene required me to train quite a bit which is why I used to train at the sports club nearby whenever I had an off in between the shots. I trained under a coach for 10 days and eventually that helped me perform the scene to perfection.'

The plot of Class of 2020 showcases the lives of teenagers who get intertwined with drugs, peer pressure, intimacy, and anxiety.
