Recalling how he entered the world of acting, Abhishek Singh said, “Last year, around October or November, my friend Mukesh Chhabra, who is a popular casting director and now a film director, invited me to lunch at his office. The team of ‘Delhi Crime 2‘ was there at the same time. When they got to know I am an IAS officer, they insisted that I audition for a role, so I did. Surprisingly, they loved it and asked me to play a real-life IAS officer in the series.”
“While I was preparing for the role, I got an opportunity to act in a short film titled ‘Chaar Pundrah’, which is currently streaming. In the meantime, T-series were looking for a fresh face for ‘Dil Tod Ke’, who looks raw, real, rustic and primarily rides a bike! I fitted the role. When I heard the song for the first time, I was mesmerised with the voice, lyrics and melody and I agreed,” he added.
