Mohit Sehgal, who has been part of shows such as Miley Jab Hum Tum and Sarojini - Ek Nayi Pehal, was last seen in Naagin 5, which ended in January this year. Talking about what he’s been up to these days, Mohit says, “I’ve been auditioning for various things ever since my last daily show went off air. I am interested in various platforms and while I want to continue doing television, I also want to try my hands at web shows and other OTT content. All that matters is that it should be a good story and an exciting character.”
Apart from auditions, the actor is also focusing on his physique and regular workouts. He shares, “Last year during the lockdown, I worked hard on my body, but I couldn’t maintain it because I had also started shooting. So, once again I am focusing on maintaining my physique and having a fit body.”
Naagin has become a popular franchise over the years and while the first three seasons did very well, the last two didn't garner as much appreciation from viewers. Was he upset that Naagin 5 didn’t do as well as expected? “When I saw the TRP numbers, I knew the show wasn’t faring that well. But it was the same team working on the show and as an actor, I gave my best. I thoroughly enjoyed being a part of it. Naagin was a different experience for me because I had never been part of such a show before. The rest, I believe, is destiny. Some content connects with the audiences and sometimes, it doesn't. Maybe the next season of Naagin will be a superhit, we never know,” he says.
Mohit adds, “Yes, I was disappointed that the show didn’t do that well. But I understand that this is a part and parcel of our industry – I’ve been here long enough to know that.”
