Kartikey Malviya as junior Shani. The 12-year-old child-actor
Kartikey hails from Itasri, Madhya Pradesh and participated in the talent show 'India's Best Dramebaaz' earlier. Playing the title role of Shani will be a great opportunity for the young boy to showcase his talents.
Talking about the show and the role
Kartikey says, "I have participated in the first season of 'India's Best Dramebaaz' but got eliminated early.
With help of my mother, I came back in season two and I was the first runner up. Playing the title role of Shani is a big break for me and I would like to thank the maker of this show Siddharth Kumar Tewary. He has given me so much confidence and assurance. He is my strength. He cast me in the show just on the basis of my performance. I am an unknown identity in the entertainment industry. I would will give my soul to the show and ensure that he can be proud of me. Whenever he is on the set, I get an extra dose of strength. I respect him a lot." Talking about his on screen parents Salil Ankola and Juhi Parmar,
Kartikey adds,"Both of them are very sweet to me and give me a lot of comfort on the set. My mother is a big fan of Salil Sir and all she wants is to click a picture with him! Juhi ma'am always gives me lots of tips on how I can further improve my acting talent with dialogue delivery."
