Vijayendra Kumeria, who is currently playing the lead character, Dev Parikh, in TV show ‘Naagin 4’, says that he is glad to be a part of the show. Talking about the content of fantasy fiction shows, the actor says, “All the seasons of ‘Naagin’ have worked well and I know that people enjoy watching such fantasy fiction shows. I had never done anything like this before. I have mostly played realistic characters and some over-the-top dramatic characters, but this genre was new to me. And working with a well-known production house is always a bonus. Every actor wants to work with them at least once in their career. That is what I thought while taking up the show. I have enjoyed doing the show, my role is challenging and different from what I have done so far.”
Unknown to many though, acting was not the first thing Vijayendra pursued in his career. Before the acting bug bit him, he was a flight purser. So, what does he feel about this shift in career? “I am very happy that I am doing something that I really like. I wanted to be an actor, but was looking for the right path. It is not easy to be an actor because it is an unpredictable line. I wanted to secure myself financially before entering the entertainment field. As a purser, I think we are anyway acting when we are on a flight, so it wasn’t much of a shift for me.” (smiles)
