Multifaceted� Swanand� Kirkire says,� “I am glad to collaborate with Star Plus� and� producer Nitin Vaidya as I mark my acting debut on the small screen. The subject of the upcoming series� and� my mastermind character is
what excited me the most to take up this show. Above all, I feel truly privileged� and� fortunate to begin work with various people� and� don unique roles in today’s time.� And� the reason I choose to play the antagonist in
Rudrakaal is that I have always valued the script over my personal on-screen or off-screen image.�

person – it’s really what makes an actor,� and� that’s the joy that I get when I play very complex characters since they are 100 percent more challenging to play.�
