“I never in my wildest dream thought that I would have a full-fledged career in acting one day. And here I am in the industry, working with the likes of Ajay Devgn, R Madhavan, Rohit Shetty and many more. It was never planned this way, though I loved the process of acting. It was a dream that I lived and today it is reality,” says the actor who is in Lucknow for the shoot of film Raid-2.

Gokhale (31) finds it a bit funny that he has been getting to do police characters in a row, says the 420IPC (2021) actor, “I don’t know how it’s happening, but after TV when I started getting work in films and on OTT it has mainly been of a cop. However, I try my best not to let the roles have any similarity when it comes to characteristics. That’s the reason Inspector Yadav of Bholaa (2022) is a complete contrast to Ashish Gokhale of The Indian Police Force (2023). What I am offered is not in my hand but how I project it on screen surely is.”

The actor says there was a time when he thought his acting career would never take off.
