About this episode

This week on Cyrus Says, we bring you the incredible journey of Tahir Raj Bhasin! From a disciplined upbringing in an Indian Air Force household to studying political science at Hindu College and screen media in Australia, Tahir's path to Bollywood is nothing short of fascinating.

Ever wondered how a young boy who discovered acting at 13 ended up playing iconic roles like Karan Rastogi in Mardaani and Sunil Gavaskar in 83? Or what it feels like to walk the red carpet at Cannes for Manto? Tahir spills it all!

He shares untold stories from the sets of Chhichhore with Nitesh Tiwari, the transformation from villain to romantic lead in Yeh Kaali Kaali Ankhein.
