“I am glad to be part of this story. My character has various shades associated with it and that has been a great responsibility to portray. To get into the skin of the character, we tried on various looks that brought out a well-etched character,” Mohit Raina said in a statement.
Produced by Ajay Rai and directed by Chandan Arora, Kan Khajura marks the third adaptation of an Israeli series from Yes Studios for SonyLIV followed by Your Honor and Tanaav (Fauda).
The rest of the cast includes Mahesh Shetty, Ninad Kamat, Trinetra Haldar, Heeba Shah, and Usha Nadkarni.
