Ujjwal Rana to play lord Vishnu in 'Narayan Narayan...'
Mumbai, April 1
Actor Ujjwal Rana has been
roped in to play the lead role of lord Vishnu in the forthcoming
mythological comedy show “Narayan Narayan Chulbulley Naarad Ki Natkhat
Leelayenâ€. He says it's a "distinctive" character.
“I have always
loved doing comedy, but it was restricted to theatre. In several daily
soaps, I have played lead roles, but for the first time I got the chance
to essay a distinctive character.
"Our culture and religion have
given us a good chunk of mythological stories which need to be told and
it feels great to be a part of this storytelling,†Ujjwal, who has
previously appeared in shows like “Meher†and “Saathiyaâ€, said in a
statement.
Based on Naarad Muni and his exploits across
the universe, the light-hearted comedy show will highlight the
bitter-sweet relationship between Vishnu and Naarad.
The show will also encompass all aspects of Vishnu’s divinity and how he is always showing the way to Naraad, his loyal devotee.
“Narayan Narayan Chulbulley Naarad Ki Natkhat Leelayen†will be aired on BIG MAGIC, starting April 6.
