As we celebrate Friendship Day, it’s a perfect moment to delve into how friendships shape and influence the lives of individuals, including those in the spotlight. Sandeep Sachdev, who is currently captivating audiences with his role as Kamalnath in the popular show Pyaar Ka Pehla Adhyaya Shiv Shakti produced by Prateek Sharma and Parth Shah (Studio LSD), provides a fascinating perspective on the role of friendship both on and off the screen.
For Sandeep Sachdev, friendship is incredibly important. He truly values connecting with people and holds his friendships in high regard. Whether he's on set or in his personal life, Sachdev is always there for his friends. "I'm just a phone call away if anyone needs to talk, whether it's something troubling them or just a light-hearted chat. Friendship is very important to me." When it comes to identifying his best friend, Sachdev finds it challenging to pinpoint just one individual from the various groups he’s been part of over the years. He acknowledges his mother as his closest confidante. "I would say that my mom is my best friend. I don't hesitate to talk to her about everything."
When it comes to the qualities he values most in his friends, Sachdev emphasizes, "The qualities that I really value the most in my friends and best friends are who is there for you when you need them, and secondly, there is no judgment. Why he called, why is he asking me this, whether you do not meet them for months and whenever you meet you just feel like you have met him just yesterday. I think the quality of love which you get from best friends is of course amazing." The fast-paced and competitive world of television often makes maintaining friendships challenging. Despite his busy schedule, Sachdev ensures that he makes time for important occasions like birthdays and anniversaries. "Friends really do understand if you can't always make it to every event, but no matter what, if it's a significant moment for a friend, I am always there," he notes.
Sachdev’s experience on the set of Pyaar Ka Pehla Adhyaya Shiv Shakti has been marked by the development of close bonds with his co-stars. "Oh, yes, I have a lot of close friends on the set of the show. From my son Kirtan to my on-screen sister Padma, to my on-screen mother Minakshi ji and my brother, Reva, who plays Rimjim, Aditi, and Nandu is played by Vrushab. We all share a great bond. Arjun, Nikki, and Parineeta have always been there, and I love shooting with them." He believes that strong friendships on set translate well on screen, making the work environment more enjoyable and productive. "If you develop close friendships on set, it really translates well on the screen because the energy and chemistry come across naturally." He finds that the friendships depicted in his role as Kamalnath mirror the authenticity and warmth of his real-life relationships. He believes that both his on-screen and off-screen friendships are marked by transparency and genuine connection. Sandeep credits his friends for significantly contributing to his personal and professional growth. Friends offer invaluable advice and perspectives that help him navigate life's decisions. " It’s always good to get advice from friends, especially when there's a lot of confusion in decision-making. Sometimes, you might not even know the right decision until you hear it from someone you trust. Hearing different perspectives can make you feel more confident and provide you with clearer information. Friendship has greatly contributed to my journey by offering genuine advice without any filters. Friends are honest and straightforward, telling you the truth whether it's good or bad," he ends.
