Shardul is currently balancing his passion for writing and acting, and talking about it, he said, "I am balancing my both acting and writing passions."Both things are tough to do. I have an interest in both and have immense interest in and respect for them. I have done a lot of work in theater and plays, but they were not very prominent roles, but in Sindhutai, I found out the actor who was in me."

Shardul said, "Buraji is a very interesting character. It has many shades. Buraji sometimes wants to help Chindhi but he behaves sometimes with her differently. Buraji is someone who has a personality with many shadows. The audience will know about it soon."

Shardul said, "Both mediums and sections require challenges and unique sides. Both are different from each other. As a writer, I have to develop my character with my writing skills. On the other hand as an actor, I have to work on my acting skills and do modifications whenever it is needed"

Shardul said in the interview that he is enjoying working on the set of Sindhutai Majhi Mai that he has been missing all these years. He said, "I have worked as a writer, and now I am also acting. Now I can witness and experience the set's atmosphere and how the actors work together like a family. I am now enjoying being on the set, which I was missing all these years when I was writing. Along with the sharing screen space, I am loving being on the set. Thanks to the entire team."
