Talking about his fascination with historical and mythological tales, Pankaj said, 'I have always been fascinated by history and mythology and its characters. These beautiful stories are not only entertaining but have great teachings and learnings in them.

Though my part was limited to a story, it was a lovely experience and left me wanting for more.'

Sharing his preparation process, Pankaj said, 'Acharya Devomay feels he has struck a bulls-eye with his invention and believes it to be the greatest of all time.

When asked if he drew inspiration from any real-life scholars or scientists of that era, Pankaj shared, 'He is excited to collaborate with Acharya Bhaskar on a new formula but becomes emotional and panicky when Bhaskar goes missing.

Expressing his gratitude, he concluded, 'The actors, director, and creatives all helped me get the character right. Acharya Devomay is hyper and brings lots of energy to the narrative, making it even more fun to portray.'
