Young actor Vedang Raina made his acting debut in Zoya Akhtar’s The Archies. Recently, he did his first theatrical film in the form of Vasan Bala’s Jigra, which also starred Alia Bhatt. The actor had recently been to Kashmir, and he couldn’t stop raving about the place in an interview with us.Have you been mobbed after Jigra release?I haven’t really stepped out yet, so no mobbing, haha. But Jigra changed my life way before it was even released. I’m just grateful I was part of this project and got to work alongside some really great minds. I feel blessed to be in this position so early in my career and at such a young age.Which is the best compliment you have received so far?The best compliment I’ve received is that this didn’t look like my debut at all. I work really hard only to get appreciated for my work, that’s all I really care about. So, I’m glad that people liked my performances and saw some promise. It really means the world.You recently visited Kashmir. What was it like?It’s one of the best places in the world to visit. One of my favourite vacations I’ve had.Did you go with friends?I went with my family. My parents didn’t really live in Kashmir either, but they used to go there quite often as kids. They had a lot of family there.Was it memorable?It was really special to visit the places where they spent their childhood. They showed me around Srinagar like it’s their home.What were the locals like?They are very warm there to all visitors.Did you meet your kith and kin in Kashmir?I don’t have any relatives there anymore. Quite sad actually.Did you get a chance to try the local cuisine?Oh yes! Best food in the world! I always say it. Kashmiri food is my favourite!! I love rogan josh. And the walnut pies in Kashmir are also really good.Would you like to go back to Kashmir?Most definitely. I love my Kashmir. One day I would love to have a house there.Did you feel safe in Kashmir?It’s a different Kashmir now. Yes, I felt safe.Where do you feel at home?Now it’s Mumbai. But Srinagar somehow feels like home. Rainawari in Srinagar is where my father’s side of the family is from.What next?Now plans are to focus on the next. I want to keep growing and improving and evolving as an actor. I want to keep challenging myself and keep working, that’s the only focus. Hopefully I get interesting opportunities to do that!Also Read: Vedang Raina shares heartfelt message to thank Jigra team members after film’s release
