Actor Sumit Arora has joined the cast of O Humnava Tum Dena Saath Mera, starring Shabbir Ahluwalia and Sriti Jha, and says his character brings both warmth and relatability to the story. “I play Shabbir Ahluwalia’s personal assistant, Dubeyji—also lovingly called DJ when he’s not in the office,” Sumit shares. “My character isn’t limited to the workplace. He’s present in the house, with the family, and in the office because he’s very close to Rakshit.“ Describing Dubeyji as grounded and spiritual, he adds, “This character is very relatable to me. He always speaks honestly and chants Radha’s name, which I also try to follow in real life. He’s very positive, pure-hearted and honest, and also brings in situational comedy.” Sumit who has also been part of the show Pyaar Ka Pehla Naam Radha Mohan. “It’s always fun working with Shabbir ji and the team again. We had already built a strong bond while doing show earlier. So when we met again, we were genuinely happy. There’s a natural comfort, and we enjoy working together on set.” He adds that their off-screen camaraderie translates well on screen. “I have a very good bond with Shabbir ji—both off-screen and on-screen. The audience will definitely see that chemistry.” The Akbar Birbal actor says he uses downtime to sharpen his craft. “When we’re not shooting, it’s important to update ourselves. I attend workshops, work on my acting and explore how to adapt to new characters,” he explains. “Meditation and self-work also become a big part of my routine during that phase. When shooting starts, it feels like a blessing. And when there’s a break, it’s a chance to learn something new. I enjoy both parts of this journey,” he says.
