Mumbai, May 20 (NationPress) Actor Mihir Ahuja, who is garnering significant acclaim for his performance in the newly launched streaming series 'Pyar, Paisa, Profit', was instantly captivated by the concept upon hearing the logline of the show.
This series draws inspiration from Durjoy Dutta's acclaimed novel 'Now That You're Rich, Let's Fall in Love', and is directed by Prashant Singh. It narrates the journey of Abhijeet—portrayed by Mihir Ahuja, a talented young man from Delhi striving to thrive in Mumbai's ruthless corporate environment.
Reflecting on his initial attraction to the project, Mihir remarked, “I distinctly remember reading the logline and immediately thinking, I must be a part of this. However, before committing, I wanted clarity on the director's vision. After meeting with Prashant and understanding his insights, everything fell into place. I was even more thrilled to learn it was based on Durjoy Dutta's novel. Although I hadn't read it, my friends vouched for its quality, insisting it was a story I couldn't overlook, and they were absolutely right. Once I grasped the complete narrative, it felt like a journey I was destined to embark upon.”
Abhijeet's odyssey is filled with aspirations, complex relationships, and moral challenges, echoing the struggles of a generation torn between passion and ambition. The show also features RJ Mahvash, Pratik Yadav, Shivangi Khedkar, Nitish Sharma, and Naman Upadhyaya in pivotal roles.
Discussing the show's broad appeal, Mihir expressed, “What resonated with me the most is how the story connects with anyone who has chased a dream. It captures the spirit people bring to major cities—ambition, determination, and hope. While the latter part delves into corporate politics, it fundamentally revolves around individuals like Abhijeet, Garima, Saurav, and Shruti, who embody diverse types of dreamers. My character, Abhijeet, hails from a modest background in Delhi, aspiring to succeed in Mumbai, yet ultimately faces choices that test his principles.”
“The tension between ambition and ethics is what will strike a chord with viewers. These are dilemmas we all encounter in various forms, which is why the narrative resonates across different demographics,” he added.
