Pratik Gandhi is basking in the success of his recently released film ‘Atithi Bhooto Bhava’. The romantic comedy film also stars Jackie Shroff and Sharmin Segal in the lead roles and Divinaa Thackur, Simran Sharma, and, Prabhjyot Singh in prominent roles as well. Directed by Hardik Gajjar, the movie is currently streaming on ZEE5.
Speaking about his character in the film, Pratik Gandhi told mid-day.com in an exclusive interview, “My character`s name is Shrikant Shirodkar and he is a stand-up comedian. He is witty. He is in a relationship with Netra Banerjee (Sharmin Sehgal) and they are live-in partners. Netra is an air hostess and a sweet girl. And like any other girl, she is expressive and she needs to be loved. She wants Shrikant also to express the same, but Shrikant is commitment-phobic. He takes relationships for granted. There is a tiff between these guys. It is a love-hate relationship between the two.”
