The Mahadev team is like family to me – Eshan “Ganesha” Bhatia

Playing a mythological character in a TV serial isn’t easy, especially if you are playing Lord Ganesha. Sadhil Kapoor who played the child Ganesha was unable to speak while he was wearing a trunk. Actor Eshan Bhatia who plays the adult Ganesha cannot eat a morsel from 10am to around 7pm in the evening as his makeup will get spoilt if he does so. The actor told us, “It is only during tea break that I can remove my makeup. I can drink fluids though. I do not feel hungry during these hours as I keep on sipping juices.”

What does he think of Lord Ganesha? He replied, “He is naughty and very knowledgeable. In fact, he possesses knowledge about the whole world.” This actor is a devotee of Lord Ganesha in real life. He worships Lord Mahadev and Hanumanji too.

Eshan is having a rollicking time on the sets. “The Mahadev team is like family to me. My colleagues are good and supportive.”
