Tanuj Virwani says any actor would kill for the character I play in Tandoor

Tanuj Virwani plays the lead role in Tandoor. The series, which also stars Rashami Desai, will stream on the Ullu app.

Tanuj Virwani will soon be seen in the web series Tandoor. Directed by Nivedita Basu, the series is inspired by true events and also stars Rashami Desai. It is co-produced by Chitra Vakil Sharma, Nivedita Basu and Chandni Soni. Tanuj was in talks for Tandoor with Basu for a long time. Around March last year when they were planning to take the next step, the lockdown happened. Talking about the series, Tanuj reveals how the lockdown gave him time to work on his character and how any actor would kill to play this role. Talking about Tandoor, Tanuj said, "We (Tanuj and Nivedita Basu) again picked up things around August- September. Dates at that time became a concern because I was stuck in continuity on another project and she needed me to look a certain way. Fortunately for Tandoor and unfortunately for the other project for some reason, there was a forced break and I was able to change my look as Nivi wanted. So I gained some weight, grew my hair and beard out, and most importantly changed my mindset. The character I play in Tandoor is one that any actor would kill for, literally. There are many layers to my character, so it needed something extra.".
