In an EXCLUSIVE interview, Suvinder Vicky said, “I would say he is a mast maula. Barun has an effortless vibe about him, which is very endearing. He is very hard-working actor but does it with ease. Also, I realised that he is a very big star given his work on TV and former shows but he has zero arrogance or attitude about him. Initially, I was a bit apprehensive given that in comparison I have hardly worked outside.” As we know, Barun Sobti is also a Punjabi. “He knew the language, and we bonded naturally as the show progressed. He is a Delhi guy and we found a lot of stuff to chat about. He is a befikra and has a sense of vulnerability which worked very well for Kohrra,” says Vicky.

When we asked him if he ever chased a career in Bollywood, this is what Vicky said. He told us that he never seriously pursued an acting career in Mumbai. He said, “Well, I had some personal reasons. I started acting in the mid 90s. At that time, the thought of travelling from Punjab to Mumbai for such an uncertain job was quite daunting. It took a couple of days by train. My parents were little scared of the idea. So, I decided to work in Punjab only. Honestly, I have great respect for all aspirants who slog it out in Mumbai to chase their Bollywood dream. It takes a lot of heart.” Also Read – Kohrra star Barun Sobti shares his Top 5 OTT recommendations [EXCLUSIVE]

I did think occasionally on how it would be to buy a home in Mumbai (laughs),” he said.
