Sanjeeda Sheikh Is Very Sweet, Says Sarbjit Actor Trishaan Singh Maini

Trishaan Singh Maini, who played Randeep Hooda’s best friend in Omung Kumar’s Sarbjit, will now be seen in Vikram Bhatt’s web series Gehraiyaan. This is India’s first horror digital series and Trishaan has been paired opposite Sanjeeda Sheikh. Directed by Sidhant Sachdev, the story is a romantic thriller intermingled with horror which revolves around the mystery behind the paranormal experience of the protagonist. SpotboyE.com caught up with the actor for a candid chat. The series goes online on March 31.

Excerpts:

What is Gehraiyaan about?
It’s a horror web series. I play Sanjeeda’s lover and best friend, and we play doctors. An accident takes place and she gets involved with spirits. You’ll get to know more in the series (smiles).

 
There’s been a long break before you signed the web series...
In Sarbjit, I had a small role. I didn’t want to repeat myself and do a small role. I wanted to do something productive than just show my face on screen.

Sanjeeda Sheikh is a big name on television. How was it working with her?
I am really lucky and fortunate to have Sanjeeda as my co-star. She is very supportive and calm. Yes, she is a big TV star and I was bit inhibited at first. But she made me feel comfortable. Though I am just one-film old and she is a senior in the industry, she was more like a friend to me. She is very sweet.

Vikram Bhatt has pushed the envelope on the digital space with Maaya. Is it the same with Gehraiyaan?
No, there are no intimate scenes in Gehraiyaan. The focus is more on the horror element. Sanjeeda plays my best friend and I love her. But our love story takes a back seat after Sanjeeda gets involved with spirits.

Will you do a lovemaking scene if required?
I would love to do it if the script demands. I don’t have any ‘No Kiss’ policy. As an artiste I don’t have any inhibitions.
