Sailessh Gulabani returns to TV after a year with Manpasand Ki Shaadi

A year-long wait has finally come to an end for Sailessh Gulabani, who was last seen in Teri Meri Doriyaann. The actor has now bagged a strong character in Sooraj Barjatya’s upcoming show, Manpasand Ki Shaadi.

The show, which also features Shilpa Tulaskar and Avinash Wadhawan, is scheduled to go on air in August.Sailessh shares, “Every actor dreams of working with good producers who create meaningful stories and successful shows. Mr. Barjatya is definitely one of those producers who features on every actor’s bucket list. I am happy that this has worked out. I will be playing the antagonist, and each of us brings our own flavour to the show.

Viewers will enjoy watching a family drama, and I am really looking forward to it. I hope this show gives my career the much-needed boost.

As an actor, one is always striving to land a good project.”The actor had also taken a break from work to take care of his mother, who unfortunately passed away last month.However, the long wait also had to do with the lack of good opportunities. He shares, “I have waited for almost a year to land a role that felt worth it after my last show, Teri Meri Doriyaann.

Although I had a strong character in the show, I couldn’t contribute much because, ultimately, a television show revolves around the lead couple. I have always felt that supporting characters bring new dimensions to the narrative, and there should be equal, if not more, focus on them too.

That might be one of the reasons why shows today don’t last as long and end within six months. The focus is often solely on the hero and heroine. But this production house is known for giving importance to the overall story and every actor involved — not just the lead pair.”
