&TV's
new
show
Ghar
Ek
Mandir-Kripa
Agrasen
Maharaja
Ki
is
a
socio
drama
built
around
the
context
of
the
legendary
King
Agrasen
Maharaja,
who
was
the
founder
of
the
Agrawal
community
of
traders.
His
teachings
and
principles
hold
relevance
even
today
and
serve
as
guiding
force
for
leading
life.
Shrenu
Parikh,
who
was
last
seen
in
a
grey
shade
in
Ek
Bhram-Sarvagun
Sampanna,
will
be
seen
in
a
positive
role
(Genda)
in
the
show.
Akshay
Mhatre
will
be
seen
playing
Shrenu's
husband
(Varun)
in
the
show.
Recently,
Akshay
revealed
to
Filmibeat
as
to
why
he
took
up
the
role.
Also,
his
co-star
Shrenu
revealed
how
Akshay
took
his
role
so
seriously
that
while
shooting
for
the
promo,
her
really
fell
down
(as
his
character
gets
seizures).
If
we
go
by
the
promo
or
storyline,
it
looks
like
the
show
is
female
oriented.
We
asked
Akshay
as
to
what
made
you
take
up
the
show
and
how
challenging
it
was
to
play
the
role
of
Varun?
To
this
Akshay
said,
"It
is
a
very
interesting
character
because
the
story
was
definitely
unique
and
interesting.
It
is
something
that
I
have
never
done
before
and
I
feel
very
fortunate
to
be
a
part
of
the
show.
This
is
so
unlike
me
as
an
individual;
it
is
very
lively
and
very
unique.
To
get
into
the
character,
I
watched
a
few
films
and
I
used
to
constantly
ask
questions.
Because
Maza
tabi
ata
hai
jab
koi
challenges
hota
hai,
otherwise
doing
any
simple
role
is
not
that
fun.
This
character
was
something
which
was
really
challenging
for
me."
Shrenu
then
interferes
and
revealed
an
incident
of
Akshay,
while
they
shot
for
the
promo.
She
said,
"Itna
ki,
yeh
promo
shoot
pe
ghir
gaya
tha
(He
took
his
role
so
seriously
that
while
performing
his
act
in
the
promo,
he
really
fell
down)
and
we
had
to
take
him
to
the
hospital."
It
has
to
be
noted
that
in
the
promo,
his
character
Varun
gets
seizures.
Varun
continued,
"But,
it
is
all
good
now.
I
took
up
the
show
because
of
the
uniqueness
of
the
character.
If
Genda's
character
is
right,
my
character
(Varun)
is
left
(total
opposite
characters).
The
banter
between
these
characters
will
be
interesting
and
their
chemistry
is
going
to
be
fun
to
watch."
