The Interesting Choice Of Cast
Gulshan Devaiah As Sammit Patel
Gulshan Devaiah gives his greatest effort yet in Duranga. Gulshan gives a convincing performance as a reserved character who doesn’t experience love, happiness, or grief and uses online courses to learn to grin or cry. He has aced his acting skills with each project he has done and is such an underestimated actor who deserves your time.

Drashti Dhami, who plays a cop alongside Gulshan, has established herself in Hindi television dramas, and this is the first time she has performed such an intense and badass part of a cop, carrying a very strong character brilliantly; she has never been seen portraying a role this harsh.
The relationship between Drashti and Gulshan is not particularly endearing, but given the diametrically opposed nature of their characters, it nevertheless manages to explain the lack of blandness.
It is difficult to develop and maintain a career in the film industry, which may be ruthless at times. Gulshan, who has been a part of Bollywood for over a decade, believes that ‘being good is not enough.’
The idea that hard effort helps you sustain and that being competent at your craft is enough is appealing, but it is fiction. Gulshan believes that as an actor, one must learn to build relationships and be in the right place at the right moment.

Devaiah recalls Karan Johar and Reema Kagti complimenting Gulshan for his spooky act. Gulshan had no expectations from the movie and wasn’t sure he would be recognised at all.
Most performers would have turned down the role owing to the limited screen time or unrecognisable makeup. However, we are confident that Gulshan chose craft over fame in this role.
