In an interview recently, Karan Johar was seen praising the streaming series Bambai Meri Jaan actor Avinash Tiwary over his exceptional talent. "I think Avinash has a very interesting and adaptive personality and face. I think that I can see Avinash exploding in many parts, like he can be the good guy, he can be the bad guy, he can be the grey guy. You know he can be the funny guy, he can be the happy guy, he can be the sad guy. I think that versatility is his uniqueness, you know I think you can adapt him and mold him into many things in cinema and of course there's digital platforms," Johar said.
Tiwary plays the role of Dara in the series based on S Hussain Zaidi’s book ‘Dongri to Dubai’. The series is directed by Shujaat Saudagar and also stars Kay Kay Menon, Kritika Kamra and Nivedeta Bhattacharya among others.
