Mumbai, May 22 (NationPress) Actor Ronit Roy recently discussed his portrayal of Prithviraj Chauhan’s father, revealing how this role reflected his own experiences as a parent.
Delving into the emotional layers of the character, Ronit shared that the essence of his on-screen fatherhood resonated with his personal parental journey. In the historical series, “Chakravarti Samrat Prithviraj Chauhan,” he embodies King Someshwar, the father of Prithviraj Chauhan.
While talking about his character, the 'Kasautii Zindagii Kay' star expressed, “Portraying King Someshwar wasn’t vastly different from my real-life role as a father. He’s more than a monarch — he’s a dad who desires the best for his child. As a father, I didn’t need to conjure those feelings; I experienced them. The pride, the concerns, and the aspirations came instinctively.”

Every dad recognizes a part of themselves in their child's strength, and I aimed to convey that genuine connection on screen. I trust that audiences will resonate with the emotional depth I felt while portraying this character. This role allowed me to engage not only with history but also with fundamental human emotions.”
