The money is important for all of us for a living but I have never given that importance to the commercial part of it. For me, it's always been the creative part which has pushed me, dragged me and inspired me. So, when I find something creative I might do it for free. I have done it also." The actor is known for his roles in superhit shows such as Muskan, Banoo Main Teri Dulhan, Bharat Ka Veer Putra... Maharana Pratap and, more recently, Naagin 5. Sharad Malhotra on His COVID-19 Battle: ‘After A While, Self Isolation Gets To You’

He believes working with one's guard down is not an option. "It's such a competitive world right now that you have to be at your best all the time, and thankfully the kind of characters I have got in the past or the present have given me the push," says Sharad, who exudes positivity, adding: "I am very positive that this year is going to be the best, because the past year has taught us a lot. You have to fight through the worst days to earn your best, and the best days are ahead for all of us," he said.
