Till recently, the ongoing Marathi serial ‘Jeevalaga’ on Star Pravah was centred around four lead characters played by Swapnil Joshi, Amruta Khanvilkar, Siddharth Chandekar, Madhura Deshpande and few character artistes around them. But, with the new twist in this serial and with the entry of Police Inspector played by Varad Chavan there are many interesting happenings taking place in this serial. However, it is Varad Chavan with his new image as a police inspector has been inviting all the attention, with his particular style of dialect which also invites some humour into this serial.
Having performed variety of roles in many TV serials and Marathi films, Varad established his own identity as an actor through his characters played in ‘Ajuni Chand raat Aahe’, ‘Mangalsutra’, ‘Asmita’, ‘Devyani‘, ‘Madhu Ithe Chara Tithe’, ‘Ek Taas Bhutacha’ & ‘Runji’ serials. He also impressed through his important roles in Marathi films like ‘Kho Kho’, ‘On Duty 24 taas’, ‘Tujhi Majhi Love Story’, ‘Shrimant Damodar Pant’ and so on.
Varad is now following the footsteps of his father late Vijay Chavan a legend of Marathi entertainment industry. During the past few years, he has also gained a lot of experience, to prove his skills.Last time when we met him, he had said that was more keen on playing an angry young man action hero and with this role of Police Inspector, this 6ft + tall smart and handsome actor has certainly been receiving not only good response from his admirers but is also likely to receive better offers from the TV and serial film makers . But, this present role of Police Inspector in ‘Jeevalaga’ will surely take him a long way to attain more and more success in his acting career.

And this year we find her making her acting debut in Marathi television serial through forthcoming much talked about Star Pravah’s serial ‘Jeevlaga’ Met Amruta Khanvilkar during the official announcement of this serial at a function in Mumbai. And among the four lead artistes, we found her very much excited that evening. She was the first one to jump with excitement when it Star Pravah’s Satish Rajwade made an announcement to get ready to watch the first look of this serial .
Amruta is playing the role of an ambitious woman Kavya opposite Swapnil Joshi who is playing the role of Vishwas, who is a writer. It may be recalled that Amruta who has completed 15 years of her acting career, seemed committed to her profession as far as her fitness is concerned. She looked as fresh as she was during her debut in films 15 years ago. Speaking about her entry into Marathi serial, she said , “I am well aware of the power of television. You become popular in every Marathi household. But, more than that I was highly impressed by the content of this serial and also liked my role.”
Finally, defining in a simple way the title ‘Jeevlaga’ she philosophically said, “Whom we see after closing our eyes, is Jeevalaga. Because of whom we exist is Jeevlaga.” We are all aware about her hard work and sincerity and therefore look forward to see the best from this talented actress through this serial which will go on air from 8th April 2019.
