Pratik Gandhi's transition from theatre and Gujarati cinema to mainstream Bollywood is an inspirational tale
Being named in a scam is a blot on anyone's career. Not so for Pratik Gandhi. In October 2020, the Gujarati actor earned praise for his pitch perfect act as Harshad Mehta in the web show Scam 1992. Says Pratik, "Something like it happens once in a lifetime and that too not for everyone." The 43-year-old is finally seeing the fruits of that career-changing act now. March saw the release of the hilarious buddy comedy Madgaon Express; on April 19, he will be seen alongside Vidya Balan in Do Aur Do Pyaar, a romantic comedy about two adulterous couples. In addition to this, Pratik has wrapped up six other features. He is currently shooting Gandhi, a web series on the father of the nation which sees him collaborating with Hansal Mehta again.
