The netizens have gone gaga over the third season of the blockbuster OTT show Aashram. The web show has been receiving rave reviews ever since it has been released officially. Actor Rajeev Siddhartha who plays a prominent role in the web series got candid about working with the bigwig Bollywood filmmaker Prakash Jha. For the unversed, Rajeev Siddhartha has been seen as the character ‘Akki’ in all the three seasons of the web show Aashram.
Currently, the actor is on cloud nine as he has been flooded with appreciation and compliments for his portrayal of Akki in the web show. His social media is filled with fans complimenting the actor’s skills. Talking about the season 3 of the web show Aashram, Bobby Deol as Baba Nirala is seen in a more intense and vicious avatar, who continues to bend every rule to suit himself and has become a power-hungry adversary while Rajeev’s Akki is a morally centred journalist who from the very outset can see right through Baba’s intentions.
Filmmaker Prakash Jha and Rajeev Siddhartha:
Rajeev got candid about his role saying, “I play the role of a journalist, a selfless human being. He stands up for people who are exploited, for people who cannot fight for themselves. In seasons 1 and 2 you see Akki realise how terrible Baba Nirala’s operations are. And how he’s exploiting people in the Aashram, especially women. Akki launches an investigation to expose Baba. Simultaneously, he gets close to Pammi as he wants to rescue her from Baba’s clutches”.
He further added about working with Prakash Jha. Rajeev said, “It was a fantastic experience with Prakash Sir. As the captain of the ship, he is so secure and confident about his craft and storytelling that the rest was taken care of. There are a lot of admirable qualities in him- the way he handles projects on a huge scale. And how he provides the right atmosphere for actors to deliver honestly in the scenes. I have been lucky to learn under his guidance and direction through all the 3 seasons.”
So, this was all about the filmmaker Prakash Jha and Rajeev Siddhartha. Stay connected to Bollywood Hush for more Bollywood Life News.
