Wagle Ki Duniya fame Sheehan Kapahi recently opened up about a heartwarming fan interaction during one of his routine metro rides. In an exclusive conversation with Times of India TV, the young actor shared how such moments leave a lasting impact on him, emotionally and personally.
“I remember that day so well — I was heading home from shoot, super tired but in a good mood, and took the metro like I usually do,” Sheehan recalled. “I noticed a few people kinda looking at me, like they were trying to figure out if it was really me. At first, no one said anything, but then one aunty finally came up and asked, ‘Are you the boy from Wagle Ki Duniya?’ I smiled and said yes, and after that, more people started coming over — asking for pictures, saying such nice things.”
He added that the kind words from strangers genuinely touched him. “A few said I remind them of their son, someone said I feel like a younger brother — that stuff always gets me a little emotional. It’s crazy to think how something I do on screen can make people feel that connected.”
Sheehan, who’s steadily gaining recognition for his relatable character on the slice-of-life sitcom, said this isn’t the first time such interactions have happened, but each one is special. “Even though I enjoy doing my own thing — like putting on headphones and zoning out on the metro — it’s moments like these that make it all worth it.”
He concluded by expressing gratitude, saying, “I love hearing people talk about how the show made their day better or how they watch it with their family. It makes me feel really lucky and happy to be a part of something so special.”
