Vijayendra Kumeria has played several memorable characters on television, but his current role as Sanyam in Juhi Mui is not the one he considers his most special. The actor has revealed which character still holds the top spot in his acting journey.
Currently seen as Sanyam, a police officer in Juhi Mui, Vijayendra is exploring a completely different shade on screen. The role also marks his first time playing a police officer, making it a fresh experience for the actor.
Vijayendra Kumeria Picks This Character Over Sanyam From Juhi Mui
Despite enjoying his ongoing stint as Sanyam, Vijayendra has placed Suraj from Udaan at number one when it comes to the characters closest to his heart.
The reason goes beyond the popularity of the character. Vijayendra spent around three years playing Suraj during the show’s five-year run, and the journey allowed him to experiment with multiple shades as a performer.
Suraj’s character also went through a major transformation, moving from an anti-hero to a positive lead while retaining some of his original edge. For Vijayendra, this gave him the opportunity to discover that his acting range extended well beyond intense roles.
Udaan’s Suraj Helped Vijayendra Kumeria Discover His Acting Range
The actor credits the role with helping him explore genres including romance, comedy and tragedy. The experience eventually became a foundation that he could carry into several of his later projects.
Vijayendra also mentioned Angad from Teri Meri Doriyaann as another character that remains particularly close to him. Playing a Sardar in the show was another distinct experience in his career.
Why Sanyam Still Holds A Special Place For The Actor
While Suraj remains his number-one choice, Vijayendra is clearly enjoying his present character too. He described Sanyam as different because of the police-officer persona and the particular charm the role brings to Juhi Mui.
For Vijayendra Kumeria, each character has added something different to his journey, but Suraj remains the role that helped him discover just how versatile he could be.
