“I want to become a star” : Aayush Shah

Actor Aayush Shah who has shown his acting skills in many popular shows and movies, is all excited to enter Mahabharat as Ashwathamma.

The talented young actor Aayush Shah who was last seen in shows like Uttaran and Navya, is all set to be seen in Siddharth Kumar Tiwary’s ongoing epic mythological series Mahabharat on Star Plus. Aayush who will be seen playing the character of Ashwathamma (Guru Drona’s son) in the show Mahabharat, is also playing the negative character of Surjeet in Big Magic’s Raavi.

We spoke to the young actor to know more about his acting career and future plans.

Let’s hear it from Aayush…

When asked him about his interest in films and television, Aayush says, “I was always interested in doing films and television so I started giving auditions for the same. I started acting 3 years ago and I did my debut in the movie ‘My Friend Ganesha – 2′. After that, I bagged Colors’ show Uttaran and soon after Uttaran I bagged a movie which is yet to be released. The movie has been selected for the Goa festival. I have also acted in shows like Navya and Sajda Tere Pyar Mein in which I played the younger version of Ranveer (Shaleen Bhanot). I was told about Mahabharat, the same time when I was doing Navya.
Siddharth sir wanted me to play the role of Ashwathamma and I was very excited and keen to be a part of Mahabharat so I immediately agreed to play the character in the show. I am very thankful to the two very wonderful persons in my life – Mahesh Chandra Bhatt and Sahil Ansari.”

Aayush is happy to share his experience of shooting for Mahabharat and says, “It was an amazing experience. The character was totally different from what I have played earlier and it was a very challenging character to play on screen. I also follow Mahabharat daily.”

“I have got much recognition with the show Navya as wherever I go, people recognize me by the character which I played in that show. Television and Bollywood are good in their own ways and I am open to do both; I want to become a star like all other wish to be,” concludes Aayush.

We wish Aayush all the best for his future endeavors!
