Zohaib Siddiqui On the Evolution of Television Shows: From Drama to Real Emotions

Shemaroo Umang has always been dedicated to providing its audience with the best, and their newly launched show ‘Main Dil Tum Dhadkan’ is no exception! Zohaib Siddiqui, the lead of the show, recently opened up about how he is witnessing the evolution of the television industry. Here is his take on how things have changed and what it has taught him as an actor.
Zohaib Siddiqui reflects, “The industry is constantly evolving, and as actors, we have to grow with it, and I’m excited to continue adapting to what the audience wants. I’m grateful to be part of this change, and I hope to keep delivering performances that resonate with people. Television shows used to be all about high-intensity drama and a lot of over-the-top emotions. That was the style back then, and it’s what the audience enjoyed. We, as actors, knew that the more dramatic a scene, the more it would be appreciated. It was the norm, and everyone delivered what was expected.”
He continues, “But now, things have changed. People want to see something real, something that reflects their own lives and experiences. Audiences now prefer more natural, method-style acting that feels relatable and genuine. In my current show, Main Dil Tum Dhadkan, I play Keshav, a father who is fighting for the custody of his son, a child he didn’t even know existed. It’s a very emotional journey, and my character behaves exactly how any father in reality would, going to court, doing everything in his power to be with his child. The audience now wants more than just drama; they want truth. As actors, it’s our job to deliver that. With Main Dil Tum Dhadkan, we’re focusing on real emotions, and the response has been incredible. It shows that viewers are connecting with this new, more honest style of storytelling.”
Tune into Shemaroo Umang to watch ‘Main Dil Tum Dhadkan’ Monday to Saturday 8.30pm
