Fresh from the sets of ‘Shabd – Rit aur Rivaaj’, rising star Mihir Ahuja dishes on what makes acting without words the ultimate hurdle. As Ghuppi Singh, the stuttering teen at odds with his heritage, Mihir delivers a masterclass in expressive minimalism.
Exclusively, he unpacked the artistry: ‘Words dominate our craft, but quiet moments hold the deepest power. Subtext – the undercurrents of feeling and motive – shines brightest sans dialogue. It’s where vulnerability meets strength, creating an impact words can’t match.’
Ghuppi’s world pits a father’s bhajan legacy against a boy’s football passion. The series sensitively unravels family pressures, generational rifts, and dream-chasing dilemmas, drawing viewers into its emotional core.
On set, Mihir and Suvinder Vicky experienced a vibe of mutual support. ‘Our story layers relationships, trust, dreams, and tensions, appealing to diverse audiences worldwide,’ they noted, underscoring the show’s broad relatability.
Mihir’s journey includes memorable turns in Super 30, The Archies, and Mission Over Mars, cementing his status as a multifaceted performer ready for bigger stages.
