- IndiaGlitz, [Thursday,August 12 2021]
His last few performances have made him a popular actor but thing weren't always so for Sharad Kelkar. Before his powerful portrayal of Chatrapati Shivaji Maharaj and subsequent success in OTT space, Sharad struggled to make ends meet. On actor Maniesh Paul's podcast, Kelker talked about his financial struggles and recalled how he was once penniless and under heavy debt.
In the teaser of the said podcast, Sharad stated, People consider the work and it may be good or bad. But nobody notices the struggle. You came from Delhi, right? I came from Gwalior. People think we both have Mercedes, we dress well and come with our hair groomed well. They don't know the backstory.”
He further added, In my life, I was out of credit cards also. There has been a time like that as well. I had no bank balance. There were so many liabilities. I have to pay off a loan and my credit card has also run dry.
Sharad will soon be seen in the role of an army officer in upcoming war drama 'Bhuj: The Pride of India'.
