Behind the Shield of Chhota Bheem and His Trusty Gadha

In the bustling corridors of Indian entertainment, a young talent has been making waves with his impeccable acting prowess. Meet Yagya Bhasin who has swiftly carved a niche for himself in both Hindi cinema and television. Recognised for his compelling portrayals of characters like Aditya Nigam in the heartwarming film “Panga” and Saaransh Khurana in the popular series “Yeh Hai Chahatein,” his journey to stardom is nothing short of inspiring. Born into a family where his father, Deepak Bhasin, was a dedicated government employee and his mother ran a thriving beauty salon, the duo took a leap of faith, resigning from their stable professions to champion their son’s artistic dreams in Mumbai.

From his early days on the small screen with “Mere Sai” to his silver screen debut in the 2020 film “Panga,” directed by the esteemed Ashwiny Iyer Tiwari, Bhasin’s trajectory is a testament to talent, tenacity, and the unwavering support of loved ones. Join us as we delve into the captivating journey of this young luminary, whose star is undoubtedly on the ascent.

How did you get involved in acting, and what inspired you to pursue a career in the film industry at such a young age?

I used to watch numerous films, particularly Hollywood action movies. I aspired to appear on television, much like the actors I admired on screen. I confided in my parents, specifically my father. Initially, he dismissed my aspirations, perhaps assuming I was merely jesting due to my age. However, as I reiterated my genuine interest and commitment to pursuing acting, he began to take me seriously. Eventually, after discussing the matter with my mother, we made the pivotal decision to relocate to Mumbai.
