Chak De reincarnation on the small screen

Friday, November 02, 2007

Sanjit Bedi is all set to become the small screen Kabir Khan. In his new show, 'Jersey No. 10', he plays a cricket coach. His role as Shivi is similar to Shahrukh Khan's role as Kabir Khan in Chak De India. Like Kabir, Shivi is forced to stay away from the game he loves.

"The approach to my character is totally different and very exciting," Sanjit clarifies, "This man lives his dreams and is a mature person who talks less."

Currently seen in Viruddh, Sanjit claims that he is as passionate about cricket as the next Indian. However, portraying the anxieties and talking about technical aspects of the game is not easy for him. The best part about this role is that Sanjit gets to play cricket on the pretext of work.
