So there is no disappointment if it takes time but only gratitude and the experience one gains out of it is wonderful,” he says.
Competition on OTT has increased, more so after the pandemic. “I believe nothing can beat the silver screen. Yes, OTT has become famous and demand has increased and it has also offered many actors an opportunity to showcase their skills. At the same time, the magnitude of the silver screen is unbeatable,” he adds.
Censorship on OTT is liberal given platforms follow self censorship and viewers’ discretion is possible, hence bold scenes and cuss words are common. Many use them to get viewers’ attention too. “I believe it depends on the director to make it presentable and acceptable,” reacts Harjinder.

About his inspiration on OTT, he is quick to reply, “Pankaj Tripathi without a doubt. The way he has shown the vulnerable sides of his acting skills is commendable. I really enjoy watching him on screen much like his huge number of fans (smiles).”
