Talking about his role, the veteran actor says: "'GK ' is a kind of a father figure to Anuj (Gaurav Khanna) in the show. They share an adorable relationship. 'Anuj' has never felt the absence of his parents, as 'GK' is the one-man army for him. The audience will get to know more soon."

At 82, Gheewala is extremely passionate and dedicated towards his craft, he feels it's the adrenaline rush that keeps him going.

"The way

Rajan Shahi

has woven the story of 'Anupamaa' is extremely engaging. Her committed married life, her struggle to create her own identity in the society - the audience loves that part. The show has a lot of messages for everyone and it is nicely conveyed through characters."
