A feminist at heart, Nikhil believes in women empowerment and that everybody needs to be treated equally. With his grounded nature, he leaves a great impression on everybody and becomes a confidant to Dr. Deepika who gives the right encouragement she needs.  

Talking about character, actor Sid Makkar says, “I have been following Dhadkan Zindaggi Kii for quite some time and I have to say I was very impressed on how the makers have written the show. It’s not daily that you come across an Indian daily soap that intrigues you from the word go but ‘Dhadkan Zindaggi Kii’ certainly does. When I was first approached for this role, I have to say I was apprehensive but when I understood the nitty gritties of the character, I jumped at the opportunity. Nikhil is just like me; as we share the same beliefs. He is a hardcore feminist and so am I, he is kind and helps people, is a good listener and has his friends’ back. I found him to be a man of his beliefs as well as someone who I can relate with, and I am sure the audience will be able to as well.”

The actor further spoke about how the cast has been welcoming towards him, “the cast is absolutely adorable! They were such fun to work with! Additi is a fabulous actor and we just connected with each other so quickly. Nikhil’s character brings a fresh breath of air in Deepika’s life which will definitely make for an interesting watch and I think the audiences will love the episodes that are to come.”
