The entry of Gaurav Chopra as Professor Rajvir Shastri in Pushpa Impossible has introduced a compelling new dimension to the story. Known for his powerful screen presence and intensity, Chopra’s portrayal of a tough yet layered mentor brings both gravitas and intrigue. Karuna Pandey , who plays the titular role of Pushpa, is thrilled about this new development.
“Absolutely! The moment we heard Gaurav ji was finalized, we were all genuinely excited,” shares Karuna. “He has a strong presence — his voice, his expressions, the way he delivers lines — it all adds great depth to a scene. As an actor, it’s a joy to work with someone so talented and experienced. Our chemistry clicked right away, and I enjoyed shooting with him. I’m looking forward to more scenes together and exploring the journey of Pushpa and Professor Rajvir. He's not just a brilliant actor, but also a warm, kind-hearted person off-screen.”
The character of Professor Rajvir Shastri marks a significant shift in Pushpa’s journey — emotionally, intellectually, and personally. Gaurav Chopra, known for taking on intense roles, embraced this one with dedication and nuance.
“When I was approached for the role of Professor Rajvir Shastri in Pushpa Impossible, I instantly knew this wasn’t just another character — it was a man with a story that needed to be told with raw honesty,” said Chopra. “Rajvir is not your typical television hero; he's a warrior, layered, wounded, yet fiercely intelligent.”
