Jitendra
Kumar,
who
made
his
big
Bollywood
debut
with
Shubh
Mangal
Zyada
Saavdhan
this
year,
can
be
seen
making
headway
in
his
career
as
an
actor.
Jitendra
has
already
starred
in
another
movie,
this
one
a
Netflix
original
called
Chaman
Bahaar.
At
the
same
time,
Jitendra
has
had
a
successful
run
in
the
web
series
space,
his
latest
being
Panchayat.
When
asked
about
his
decision
making
process
when
it
comes
to
choosing
projects,
Jitendra
said
that
his
priority
is
to
go
with
interesting
stories.
Speaking
to
Hindustan
Times,
Jitendra
said,
"I
don't
have
a
strategy
and
I
make
organic
choices.
I
became
an
actor
to
act,
so
I
try
to
pick
the
best
from
what
is
offered.
The
idea
is
to
do
different
and
interesting
stories,
which
is
happening.
The
credit
goes
to
the
audiences
as
they
are
enjoying
and
consuming
different
stories
have
which
encourages
us
to
make
them."
He
added,
"When
people
reacted
to
Shubh
Mangal
Zyada
Saavdhan,
I
realised
how
important
the
film
was
to
so
many
people
which
I
didn't
while
shooting
as
I
was
busy
focusing
on
my
craft.
Films
have
a
wide
and
huge
reach
with
a
major
chunk
of
family
audience
while
web
shows
are
consumed
more
by
people
between
the
ages
of
17
to
35."
While
he
admits
that
there
are
risks
associated
with
newer,
different
stories,
he
is
thankful
that
OTT
backs
such
projects.
"Now
is
the
time
to
create
content
that
one
hasn't
seen
before
or
that
was
maybe
thought
of
as
too
different.
A
number
of
writers
and
directors
are
working
in
that
direction,
as
many
producers
do
support
such
ideas," he
said.
Shubh
Mangal
Zyada
Saavdhan
was
directed
by
Hitesh
Kewalya,
and
it
also
starred
Ayushmann
Khurrana,
Gajraj
Rao,
and
Neena
Gupta.
