Actor Satya Tiwari, currently essaying the role of Gautam in the popular television drama on Star Plus, Anupamaa, produced by Rajan Shahi’s Director’s Kut feels proud and grateful to be associated with a show that goes beyond entertainment and delivers meaningful messages. Known for its compelling storyline, nuanced characters, and emotional depth, Anupamaa has won the hearts of audiences across age groups, and Satya believes the show dares to tackle difficult truths that make it stand out.
“Being part of Anupamaa is nothing short of a blessing,” Satya shares. “It feels great to be associated with a show of this magnitude. Audiences have not only loved it but also taken away a lot from it. It is not just another daily soap—it offers real-life lessons and shines a light on the kind of social issues that are usually brushed under the carpet. These are the very topics society does not want to acknowledge or discuss openly.”
He further elaborates on the responsibility that comes with being a part of such a powerful narrative. “With a show like Anupamaa, which has such a massive reach and impact, it becomes important to explore every idea and emotion, no matter how sensitive or controversial it may seem. Television has the power to reflect society and spark important conversations, and that’s exactly what Anupamaa strives to do. Whether it’s gender roles, mental health, family dynamics, or individual freedom—these are all topics that need more visibility.”
Reflecting on his own journey as Gautam, Satya admits that the character is quite unlike him in real life, but the experience of portraying him has been deeply enriching. “I don’t relate much to Gautam on a personal level—he’s very different from who I am. But that’s the beauty of acting. With every role, you step into someone else’s shoes, and that process teaches you something new. Thanks to the incredible guidance from our directors and creative team, I have understood and embodied Gautam convincingly. Once you are aligned with the vision, it becomes much easier to bring a character to life.”
In a time when many television shows stick to tried-and-tested formulas, Anupamaa dares to be different, and Satya Tiwari is proud to be a part of that change.
