What’s the story behind casting Mihir Godbole as Lampan?

Mihir Godbole

MUMBAI: When it comes to casting, sometimes it's the smallest details that make the biggest impact. Sony LIV's upcoming Marathi original series, Lampan, is a testament to this. Set to premiere on May 16th, the show introduces viewers to the endearing character of Lampan, brought to life by Mihir Godbole. But what's truly fascinating is the quirky tale of how Mihir's teeth clinched him the role.

In a recent revelation, it was disclosed that Mihir Godbole's teeth became the unlikely reason for his selection as the face of Lampan. This delightful anecdote adds a charming layer to the casting process, showcasing how sometimes, it's the quirks that make a performance truly memorable.

Exploring this unusual perspective, Dharmadhikari explains, "From the director's point of view, casting is about finding not just an actor, but someone who can fully embody a character. Lampan's journey was no different – every small detail was important, and we took our time. When I first met Mihir, his smile caught my attention; it had a natural sincerity and warmth that matched Lampan's spirit perfectly. As we were wanting to eagerly find our Lampan, it became clear that Mihir's smile wasn't just a physical trait; it was a crucial part of the innocence and wonder we wanted to convey through his character. Choosing Mihir was an intuitive choice, based on the belief that his smile could bring Lampan's soul to life along with his incredible talents. It's moments like these when a bright smile lights up a room, that shows the magic of casting, shaping the heart of a production."

Mihir's toothsome tale serves as a reminder that in the world of entertainment, magic can be found in the most unexpected places—even in a smile.

Directed by Nipun Dharmadhikari and produced by a stellar team including Shrirang Godbole, Hrishikesh Deshpande, and Amit Patwardhan, Lampan promises to be a journey into the heart of Marathi literature.
