Mohak Matkar on Working with a Veteran Like Nilam Panchal
In Saru, Mohak Matkar is making waves with his compelling portrayal of the titular character. But as he steps into the world of emotionally layered storytelling, he’s not doing it alone.
He credits much of his growth to working alongside Nilam Panchal, who plays his on-screen mother. And his words say it all:
From the first reading during auditions, there was an instant comfort with Nilam ma’am. She brought not just talent, but warmth and support that helped me dig deeper into Saru’s emotional world.
Whether it was long rehearsals sharing chai on set, or late-night scene breakdowns, their connection went beyond just work. It became a partnership — one built on trust, learning, and genuine affection.
A Masterclass in Acting and Empathy
For Mohak, every scene with Nilam became an opportunity to grow as an actor— and more importantly, as a person.
She helped me discover the emotional complexity of Saru with compassion. Working with her hasn’t just shaped my performance, it’s shaped me, Mohak shared.
