Prathaon Ki Odhe Chunri: Beendani Actor Akash Jagga Reveals Why He Took a Break

Sometimes, hitting the pause button in life is just as important as moving forward. For actor Akash Jagga, who is currently seen in Sun Neo’s recently launched show Prathaon Ki Odhe Chunri: Beendani, that pause came in the form of a year-long break from television. Recently, Akash opened up about why he decided to take this break and what brought him back to the screen.

While speaking about his break from television, Akash Jagga says, “I took almost a year-long break from television, and honestly, I think it was a much-needed one. Earlier, I had played a negative role, and after that, I kept receiving offers for similar roles. I didn’t want to get stuck in that loop. If the characters had been slightly different, I might have considered them, but most of the roles felt repetitive. That’s when I decided to pause, step back, and wait for something fresh. And you know, when you keep waiting for something, it makes you wait even longer? That’s exactly what happened with me. The moment I stopped stressing about it and thought, let’s see what destiny has in store, that’s when I got a call for Kundan’s character.”

He further added, “When I read the script, I instantly found it very interesting. The show is based in Rajasthan, which is also my hometown, and I had never done a Rajasthani-based show before. That made it even more special for me. Kundan, as a character, felt layered, unique, and challenging—exactly the kind of role I was looking for, something that teaches me and excites me as an actor. Everything just fell into place at the perfect time with this show.”

Talking about the show, Akash shared, “Of course, there have been many shows based in Rajasthan, but this show is different because it’s so unpredictable. There are constant twists and turns right from the first few episodes. Every character is unique, well-written, and has their own story. As the show moves forward, you will see the depth of each character. This layered storytelling is something viewers should not miss. That’s why Prathaon Ki Odhe Chunri: Beendani is the perfect show for my comeback on TV.” 

Prathaon Ki Odhe Chunri: Beendani tells the story of Ghevar, a spirited village girl from Rajasthan, whose life changes when fate brings a newborn into her family—linking two very different worlds. As love, sacrifice, and hidden truths unfold, Ghevar’s journey becomes one of courage and determination to protect what she holds dear.
