Meet the actor who played Bobby Deol's brother in 'Animal', has mentored Tripti Dimri, Varun Dhawan, and many more

Actor Saurabh Sachdeva is on a roll. In a span of over a year, he has acted in ‘Bambai Meri Jaan’, ‘Jaane Jaan’, and ‘Vadh’. And recently, he was seen as Bobby Deol’s brother in Sandeep Vanga’s Animal. He’s a trained actor and mentored artists like Varun Dhawan, Arjun Kapoor, Richa Chadha, Raghav Juyal, Kubbra Sait, Dulquer Salmaan, Tripti Dimri, Avinash Tiwary Jacqueline Fernandez, Vani Kapoor, Asha Negi, Shakti Mohan, Rithvik Dhanjani, and Mandana Karimi. He joined Barry John’s Imago Acting School (now known as Barry John Acting Studio) in 2001, where he started teaching in 2002. The actor recently spoke to Times of India and said, “There are many actors who I look up to and one of them is Manoj Bajpayee. I believe that he is a very versatile actor. Even Nawazuddin Siddiqui  is a very powerful actor.  Ranbir Kapoor  is also very good. I even look up to Alia Bhatt as an actor. Her performances really move me because I feel she’s really worked her way into the character she plays. I like Kangana Ranaut a lot. The way she brings her strength and boldness on the screen is amazing. She’s not scared of anything.” On  Ranbir Kapoor While talking to News18, Sachdeva revealed, “Ranbir Kapoor is a very impulsive actor. He is so impulsive that he is always ready to shoot. And most importantly, he is always respectful to his co-actors, he takes care of them, really sees what the co-actor is going through. If an actor is not in his comfort space or is dealing with something, he is always standing there for them. He knows that two people can make a scene and he cannot do it all by himself.” On Animal Initially, I didn’t understand the world of Animal. I was taking to Sandeep Reddy Vanga again and again and I was meeting him. And I had these conversations about the world I was getting into. I did ask him if it was Sacred Games kind of world or Taish kind of world. He did draw a picture in front of me and he showed me some visuals where I could understand what it was all about.
