Vijayendra Kumeria, currently starring in *Deewaniyat*, is set to embark on a new chapter as he prepares for his next big project. He has been cast as the male lead in *Jagriti – Ek Nayi Subah*, which will soon undergo a significant 12-year time leap. As *Deewaniyat* wraps up on January 29, Vijayendra is in the final days of filming and comments, “There’s a bit of work left, but I’ll definitely manage to finish it before moving on.”
Once *Deewaniyat* concludes, Vijayendra will take on a fresh role as Suraj in *Jagriti*. He expresses his excitement, saying, “Yes, I’m thrilled to join the cast of *Jagriti* and play Suraj. After signing the contract, I watched a few episodes to grasp the storyline, and I really liked what I saw. I believe the show has great potential to resonate with audiences after the time leap. The character itself is what drew me in; Suraj is multi-faceted, and I’m eager to bring him to life. When the offer came, I jumped at the opportunity.”
Describing his character further, Vijayendra, who has appeared in various shows like *Pyaar Ka Dard Hai Meetha Meetha Pyaara Pyaara*, *Shastri Sisters*, *Udann*, *Sufiyana Pyaar Mera*, *Naagin 4*, *Aapki Nazron Ne Samjha*, *Mose Chhal Kiye Jaaye*, and *Teri Meri Doriyaann*, elaborates, “Suraj is a complex personality. He seeks his father’s approval and grapples with deep-seated insecurities. While he may appear brash and entitled, leveraging his father’s political influence, there’s a vulnerable side beneath it all — a young man yearning for his father’s respect. His blend of arrogance and vulnerability makes the role fascinating to portray. Suraj’s journey of self-discovery and his evolving relationship with Jagriti will be key elements of the narrative.”
