“If you refuse to break the shackles of your comfort zone, the industry tends to leave you far behind. I had realised this long time back. This was the reason that I landed into production and writing as well although I had some of the best characters to portray on screen. My last OTT release Matsyakaand (2021) brought me into the forefront of the acting game whereas shows like Udaariyaan helped me set my foot as a producer on television. Also, our Punjabi cinema foray has been an amazing one. Today, I am in a space where I am more prepared to take risks and not fall for number games,” says Dubey during his recent visit to his hometown Deoria.

Talking about the purpose of his trip, the Jamai Raja actor adds, “I had this strong feeling of late that it was time to go back to my roots and just be myself and shed all perceptions. That’s why I visited my parental house in the village and went to those places where I grew up as a kid. Meeting my neighbours and relatives made me extremely happy and content. I feel charged up and raring to go. I have always encouraged my creative pursuits from an early age. And that’s why my work mode is always on, looking out for different stories to tell as a maker or actor. Though this was more of a personal trip. Wo kehte hai na when your land calls you, there’s no looking back.”
