Deven Bhojani plays an entirely different character in 'Taaza Khabar' - Mumbai News

Talking about his character in 'Taaza Khabar', the actor said: "I play 46-year-old Mehboob, owner of a bakery situated in a middle-class locality. He's a simple, large-hearted, righteous and God-loving father of a teenage girl and best friend of a much younger Vasant (Bhuvan Bam). Mehboob dyes his hair with reddish brown henna. He sports a french beard without the moustache."

For him, this was something new as he isn't habitual to such a get-up for his characters.

He further mentioned: "I've not used such a get-up earlier. Plus, unlike most of the other characters I've played so far, this one rarely creates humour. That's the best part I like about him. Conscience-stricken Mehboob bhai goes through an emotional roller coaster ride about his friendship, principles, dilemma and much more."

Produced by Rohit Raj & Bhuvan Bam under the banner BB Ki Vines productions, directed by Himank Gaur and written by the duo Hussain & Abbas Dalal, the series is available to stream on Disney+ Hotstar.
