Prateik Chaudhary the talented young actor is presently seen in the role of Ashwin Awasthi in Sindoor Ki Keemat the Dangal show. He enjoys being in his character and has splendidly happy memories of filming every scene.
Says Prateik, “I will say playing Ashwin Awasthi is not a challenge, as we are both quite similar. Both are extremely naughty, fun-loving, energetic, extremely sorted, both love their families to the core, can die or take someone’s life for their family, very mischievous but at the same time very emotional, supportive, loveable and fun, you can say. So sometimes I feel like am just being myself when I play Ashwin Awasthi. One thing which is not similar between Ashwin Awasthi and Prateik Chaudhary is that Prateik is a little calm, composed, and soft, whereas Ashwin is not so calm and composed and soft, he’s a little extrovert I would say.”
Talking further, Prateik tells us, “Basically whenever I do any projects I always think about my craft, my growth, whether it is going to be helpful for my future or not. I just don’t do anything just because I don’t have work right now or am just going through tough situations. I always do work if I like the script, the team, and the work. Fame and money are always last for me. Good quality work is always my main priority.”
Speaking about his career graph on the whole, Prateik confides in us, “I have been offered many projects in that past which could have given me easy fame and money. But that’s not what I have become an actor for, I have become an actor because I love acting and its craft. So the eagerness to do good work and the zeal to give so much love to the audience and be a part of their entertainment have always meant a lot to me.”
Prateik who is from a Marwadi family was into business after completing his graduation. However, when he found a vacuum in his life even when he was being prosperous in his business, he took the big decision to move into acting. “By God’s grace, after many struggles and many sacrifices, I am here. So, this is my sweet and simple journey so far.”
Ask Prateik about the kind of role that attracts him, and he says, “Intense, rugged and charming roles really excite me and I would love to do it in future.”
Prateik who was seen as the lead in the MX Player series Becharey, and the mythological TV show Paramavatar Shri Krishna, states, “I am doing a super positive role in Sindoor Ki Keemat as Ashwin Awasthi. So all these characters have helped me as an actor to grow.”
Wish you all the very best, Prateik!!
