Mar 20, 2026Speaking more about his work in these films, Akashdeep says, “I’m delighted to join team 'Fateh' and to work alongside my dear friend Sonu Sood. It’s a negative role, and I’m looking forward to doing an evil job to the best of my abilities. This will be a change after a few roles where I had to play a humorous character. Looking forward to this one particularly.”
He adds, “My second innings as an actor has been very good, and I’m getting diverse roles and some very big co-actors and directors to work along with, something I really missed in my first innings. I hope the viewers too like what I’m doing. I have received a lot of praise for 'Selfie' and 'Night Manager', and will continue to push the envelope in every outing.”
Akashdeep started his journey in the entertainment industry as a producer-director, and later made his debut as an actor with TV series 'Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi'. However, he did not find much success and decided to take a break and focus on other ventures. But he returned to acting with renewed vigour and dedication, and his performances in his recent releases have been appreciated by both critics and audiences.
