Mumbai, December 23 (NationPress) Actor Sharad Kelkar is gearing up to embark on an exciting new professional venture, and he has already kickstarted his preparations for the role.

He shared a sneak peek of his recent gym workout on his Instagram Stories, offering fans a glimpse into his rigorous training.

The snapshot showcased his impressive biceps as he diligently worked out on the machine, although his face was obscured by a sports cap.

Kelkar captioned the post with, “And the prep starts (Bicep emoji) (sic)” along with the phrase “New Film”.

While the specifics of the film remain a mystery for now, his dedication to the role has undoubtedly sparked anticipation for his upcoming project.

Currently, Kelkar is also involved in the crime thriller series, “Taskaree: The Smuggler’s Web”.

He will share the screen with notable actors such as Emraan Hashmi, Amruta Khanvilkar, Nandhish Singh Sandhu, Anurag Sinha, and Zoya Afroz in this series, which will be available for streaming on Netflix.

Recently, the creators of “Taskaree: The Smuggler’s Web” released a captivating teaser, further heightening interest in the show.

Emraan Hashmi, reflecting on his character in the series, stated, “Taskaree was exciting for me on many levels. It’s my first time working with Neeraj Pandey, and stepping into his world. Playing a customs officer is new territory for me, and Arjun Meena isn’t loud or flashy; he’s calm, observant, and always thinking two steps ahead. I enjoyed stepping into that space. I’m really looking forward to audiences seeing me in this new role. Partnering with Netflix and Neeraj sir makes it even more special; it’s makers that encourage stories like this to be told at scale.”

Produced by Friday Storytellers and directed by Raghav Jairath, “Taskaree: The Smuggler’s Web” is set to premiere on January 14 on the streaming platform.
