Actor Pratik Sehajpal has revealed insights about his character and the preparations to get into the character for Jab Mila Tu. The actor said: “I picked up a Punjabi accent by exaggerating how people in Delhi talk, especially from West Delhi. It's now a part of my everyday life, whether getting up, sitting down, or just chatting. Sometimes, serious talks sound like jokes because of the accent. It adds authenticity to my characters, influenced by observations in Delhi, even from simple moments like encounters in the metro.” Pratik Sehajpal Shares About His Love for Football and His Wish To Be a Part of Dance Reality Show.
Regarding the reason for playing this unique and free-spirited character, Pratik said: “This role is a departure from my previous ones --unique, free-spirited, and incredibly fun. Reading the script, I eagerly anticipated certain dialogues, creating excitement for the ‘When will this come?’. The role captures attention and adds a fresh, enjoyable element. I saw it as a fun and different opportunity, so I took it.”
