Reflecting on the dynamic between Latika and Palash in the series, Tanya shared, “There’s a universal truth about siblings — no matter where they are in the world, agreeing with each other seems almost impossible. Even when we know the other person is right, admitting it is just not an option. But, despite the constant clashes, there’s also an unspoken bond. Siblings are each other’s biggest critics but also their strongest supporters. That dynamic is something Latika and Palash embody beautifully. While reading the script, Sahil and I found ourselves relating to their interactions because both of us have siblings. That sense of familiarity and authenticity made their love-hate relationship feel raw and real.”

Speaking about the challenges of playing Latika, Tanya added, “Physically, there were quite a few demanding scenes. But one of the most mentally exhausting moments was when Latika has a confrontation that forces her to question everything her choices, her intentions and even her own conscience. It was emotionally intense because so much of what she was going through couldn’t be expressed in obvious ways. Just being in that headspace was deeply challenging, but also incredibly rewarding as an actor.”

Loot Kaand is now streaming for free exclusively on Amazon MX Player, available through its apps on mobile, Amazon’s shopping app, Prime Video, Fire TV, and Connected TVs.

Speaking about the challenge of stepping into the role of a football coach with a dark, complex personality, Trishaan shared, “Preparing for this character was a deeply challenging and thought-provoking process. Since I was playing a football coach, I focused on understanding the authority and influence that comes with such a role, especially in shaping young minds. Beyond the physical aspects of being a coach, I wanted to explore the psychological layers: the sense of power, the entitlement, and the subtle ways in which authority can be misused.”

For Trishaan, bringing authenticity to the role required more than just physical preparation. He delved into the silent, unsettling aspects of his character’s personality, making his presence felt even in moments of stillness. “The real preparation came in understanding the darkness behind the character. I worked a lot on internalizing the silence, the moments where he says nothing but conveys everything through a glance or a shift in posture. I didn’t want to play him as overtly evil but rather as someone who believes in his own justifications, which makes him even more unsettling.”

The role also gave Trishaan an opportunity to explore deeper themes of patriarchy and male entitlement, adding further complexity to his portrayal. “The layers of patriarchy and male entitlement added another dimension, making the performance more nuanced. It was a tough role to slip into and even harder to leave behind after the camera stopped rolling. I hope the audience feels the tension and discomfort that this character brings to the story.”

He credited the show’s director, #RuchirArun, and his co-actor #TanyaManiktala for their immense support in shaping his performance. “I was very well guided by my director Ruchir Arun and greatly supported by a super talented co-actor, Tanya Maniktala, as I had all my scenes with her.”

Having already left audiences impressed with his portrayal in Loot Kaand, Trishaan continues his journey with Khakee: The Bengal Chapter, further cementing his reputation as an actor who brings authenticity and depth to every role.
