Varun Kasturia is currently seen as Ansh in Rajan Shahi ’s Anupama, says though he likes to mingle with his fellow co-actors, his first priority is always his craft.
He said, “When you spend long hours on set, you end up forming bonds with your co-actors. Sometimes those bonds turn into deep friendships, and occasionally, even love. But I believe it really depends on the person.”
“You can find a partner anywhere, anytime—it doesn’t necessarily have to be at work. For me, when I’m on set, my focus is completely on the work. That’s my priority. Emotions are natural, but the mindset should always be clear: we’re here to tell a story, to give our best to the craft. Everything else is secondary,” he added.
He agrees that with such long shooting hours , the set becomes an actor’s second home. He said, “Daily soap actors are mainly one-take actors, and with the kind of long hours we work, the set truly becomes a second home. For me, it’s not just a place of work—it’s where I eat, rest, think, and live a big part of my life.”
