Exclusive - Pankit Thakker addresses ongoing speculations surrounding his bond with Ishreen Vadi; says 'Unfortunately, our society still holds onto stereotypical views'
Pankit Thakker, who has been part of shows like Dill Mill Gayye, Bahu Humari Rajnikant spoke about his bond with Ishreen Vadi and how he handles the ongoing speculations surrounding their relationship.
Pankit, currently seen in the TV show Saru, shares, "I first met her at an event in 2018 through mutual friends, and that’s how our friendship began. Initially, we bonded over work collaborations, but over time, we discovered a deeper connection. We've always been there for each other and continue to support one another."
Thakker, known for his roles in popular shows like Kabhii Sautan Kabhii Sahelii and Dill Mill Gayye, opened up about being linked romantically with Punjabi film producer Ishreen Vadi. He added, "There will always be people who scrutinize or question friendships, but genuine bonds aren’t shaken by speculation. We prefer to focus on the connection we share rather than the chatter around us. Unfortunately, our society still holds onto stereotypical views about male-female friendships, which is truly disheartening."
Reflecting on the importance of friendship, he expressed, "Friendship is the glue that binds the world. Genuine bonds are rooted in trust, respect, and mutual understanding — and that’s what makes them truly meaningful. Good friends are like stars; even when they’re not visible, their presence is always felt."
Pankit recently stepped into the world of OTT with his debut film Moh Maaya, directed by Ankush Bhatt. Talking about his first digital venture, he had expressed, "It's a challenging role, I'm enjoying the process of bringing this character to life. This is a lead role, and I see this film as an opportunity. I love exploring new characters and bringing their stories to life. I think it's all about understanding the character's motivations and backstory. I try to connect with their emotions and experiences and then bring that to life on screen. This helps me manage to fully inhabit my characters and make them unique and memorable."
