“The sweet surprise of handmade cards, chocolates and a beautiful bouquet from the young cast truly made my day” says Manish Wadhwa of Sony SAB’s Hastinapur Ke Veer

Sony SAB’s Hastinapur Ke Veer has viewers hooked with depiction of formative years of Pandavas and Kauravas. Bhishma Pitamah is a guiding force and protector for the young princes on screen but off-screen actor Manish Wadhwa shares a warm and affectionate bond with the young cast who often look upto him as a mentor and father figure.

To add a special touch to the Father’s Day celebrations, the children planned a heartwarming surprise for veteran actor, gifting him with handmade cards, chocolates and a beautiful bouquet. Manish felt so happy at the thoughtful gesture and was touched beyond words. Manish has now formed a bond with the young cast who often look up to him for advice and love during the shoot. Many of them fondly call him ‘Pitamah’ even when the cameras are not rolling. Manish is a loved presence on set, whether it’s helping them with scenes, sharing stories between takes or simply making them laugh.

Sharing his feelings on the surprise, Manish Wadhwa said, “It was such a sweet surprise from the kids and it truly made my day. They gave me handmade cards, chocolates and flowers and the love behind those gestures made them even more special. These children are incredibly talented, sincere, and full of positive energy. We spend a lot of time together on set, whether it’s rehearsing, shooting, or simply having fun between takes so over time we’ve built a very warm bond. Many of them call me Pitamah or Dadu off-screen, which always brings a smile to my face. It is always wonderful to have these amazing kids around and I feel very fortunate to share this journey with them. God bless them all.”
