Chinmayee Salvi and Sheehan Kapahi from Sony SAB’s Wagle Ki Duniya talk about their sibling bond

While filming television shows, especially family centric ones, actors naturally form strong bonds, more so in the case of a brother-sister relationship. From sharing inside jokes, hiding each other’s secrets or quarrelling over food, a sibling bond is truly special. One such on-screen brother-sister duo is Chinmayee Salvi and Sheehan Kapahi who play Sakhi and Atharva Wagle in Sony SAB’s Wagle Ki Duniya. After having filmed together for over two-and-a-half years, both have become as thick as thieves. When Atharva was kidnapped in the recent episode, his sister Sakhi comforted him with a bowl of ice-cream when he returned and assured him that no matter what, she would always be around for him. Extending this camaraderie to their real life, actors Chinmayee and Sheehan’s bond is equally heartwarming. From helping each other study for exams to cheering one another through life they are always seen sharing a special bond . 

Talking about her bond with Sheehan, Chinmayee Salvi from Sony SAB’s Wagle Ki Duniya said, “Working with Sheehan in Wagle Ki Duniya has been nothing short of a laughter riot. We are always cracking jokes and pulling each other’s leg while also teasing Sumeet Sir and Pariva Ma’am who play our onscreen parents. The storyline where Atharva was kidnapped on the show, really brought Sheehan and me closer. There’s a lovely scene where I hug Sheehan after he’s returned home and tell him that ‘you’re not a part of my life, but you are my life’ and this struck us deeply. That moment solidified our bond, and we knew we would always have each other’s backs. Be it practicing football with him or helping him revise for his exams, Sheehan and I are always having a blast with each other.”

Sharing more about his relationship with Chinmayee, Sheehan said, “I remember when I broke my toe, Chinmayee Di was one of the first few people to come check on me. She spoilt me with love, games and lots of food. Whenever I have exams coming up, she’ll help me revise in between shots and make sure I’m putting my best foot forward. She will also occasionally play football with me and we’ll just enjoy our time together. If I could have an elder sister, I would love for it be someone like Chinmayee Di. Our bond is very special just like our characters Atharva and Sakhi.”
