From starting his career as an RJ to landing the role of Maninder Singh in Special Ops 1.5, actor Aadil Khan speaks about his big break and more.
How did you join the Special Ops cast?
Shubham the casting director for Special Ops called me and I was left awestruck. I’ve been a big fan of the series and binge watched it during lockdown. Back then I had no clue I would be part of this universe. I also remember speaking about it on social media, I`m big fan of Neeraj (Pandey) sir’s work. I told him I would like to meet right away. They gave me a scene as part of the audition and in a day or two, I was told Neeraj sir wanted to meet me. What a beautiful memory!
