Samir Kochhar Discusses His First Foray into Comedy with ‘Moonwalk’

Mumbai, Jan 7 (NationPress) Actor Samir Kochhar, who has been receiving an overwhelming positive response for his performance in the newly launched streaming series ‘Moonwalk’, remarked that his character in the production helped him to extend his boundaries as an actor.

This series represents his inaugural venture into comedy. Portraying Maddy, a character who experiences the ups and downs of a comedy-thriller, Samir has earned considerable acclaim for venturing into unfamiliar territory with skill.

The character of Maddy demanded a delicate balance of humor and suspense, compelling Samir to explore new dimensions of his artistry.

Reflecting on his experience, Samir stated, “Maddy was different from any role I’ve taken on previously. Comedy relies heavily on timing, and merging it with the suspense of a thriller made this role uniquely demanding. It challenged me as an actor, and I’m thrilled with the audience's reaction.”

Critics have praised Moonwalk for its creative storytelling and Samir’s remarkable ability to transition between humor and tension. Fans have also welcomed this new side of the actor, taking to social media to commend his invigorating performance.

The series features Anshumaan Pushkar, Nidhi Singh, Sheeba Chadha, and Geentanjali Kulkarni. The storyline revolves around two thieves competing for love.

Tarik Pandey (played by Anshumaan Pushkar), a thief, faces off against Maddy (portrayed by Samir Kochhar) in a bid to win the affection of their dream girl, Chandani (played by Nidhi Singh). The two men’s fate hangs in the balance as they embark on a challenge that involves stealing the more valuable item to earn her love.

Additionally, an aging gangster, his son who aspires to be a teacher, a strict police officer, and Chandani’s envious ex-boyfriend contribute to the disorder, resulting in an unforeseen clash as all contenders vie for the ultimate reward, a moonrock.

‘Moonwalk’ is now available for streaming on Jio Cinema.
