MUMBAI :Vardhan Puri is a well-known actor who made his debut with the 2019 film ‘Yeh Saali Aashiqui’. He received a lot of love for his role in the movie, and since then, he signed on for 3 more movies which were later cancelled due to the pandemic. He had spent his initial years as an assistant director after which he moved on to acting.

He recently shared about how over the years, he has met many people who pretend to be well connected with people from the film industry, and even take advantage of actors by promising work. “Some people directly ask you for sexual favours and say, ‘You pay me this much and I will get you this’. Someone would say, main aapko X, Y, Z se milaunga or woh aapke liye film likh rahe hain. And later, you learn that the person doesn’t even know the director and woh industry ka hissa hi nahin hain. They just try to make a quick buck.”

After the lockdown, Vardhan’s first film that brought him back in the scene was filmmaker Vivek Agnihotri’s ‘Nautanki’. In an interview last year, Vivek Agnihotri had stated that he was- “not associated with the film anymore”. The director even revealed that he had shot the film over the first lockdown as a gesture to help his friend Anupam Kher, and even helped with the first cut as a friendly gesture. He even shared that he had no idea about the final product. Talking to Puri about the development, the actor, without revealing too much, admits that things are on track. He adds, “That’s an old story. I’m not allowed to talk about it. Everything is great now and he (Agnihotri) is very proud of the film.”
