Ankit Arora makes a comeback to television after two years

Ankit Arora, who we have seen in popular shows like Ramayana, Chandrakanta and Prithvi Vallabh, is making a comeback on Indian television after a hiatus of two years. Currently playing the negative character Arsh Gujral in the show 'Ghum Hai Kisi Ke Pyar Meiin', Arora made his acting debut playing Laxman in Ramayana in 2008. He then went on to work in numerous shows including Jyoti, Phir Subah Hogi, Ek Ghar Banaunga, Razia Sultan and Ashoka.

Last seen in an episodic in Mauka E Vardaat in 2021, Ankit took a break from acting. On his break, he shares, “The last show where I played a meaty role was Alif Laila. It was a dream role for me as it was the first protagonist role after a streak of constant negative leads. Playing the protagonist was a challenge but I was eager to take it up. Unfortunately, the lockdown had other plans and the show had to be shelved. But I'm grateful for the experience and the opportunity to have played such an iconic character, even if it was for a short time. It will always hold a special place in my heart.” After this, he thought of trying his hand at something new. “I took a break to explore other sides in this creative entertainment field. These two years were a much-needed break and I’m grateful that I got to explore another creative side as a producer, where I produced a show and learned a lot of things.”

Now he is back to acting with the ongoing show Ghum Hai Kisikey Pyaar Meiin. He further adds, “I'm excited to be back in front of the camera. In all these years, what I have learnt is that TV is unpredictable, you always have to keep polishing your craft as an actor and be ready for the unexpected.”
