Danish Sood describes Gurbaaz Singh as a "carefree, middle-class boy with big dreams of joining the Indian Army." Gurbaaz's journey in the show is one of self-discovery and growth, as he navigates the challenges and responsibilities that come with his ambitions.
"Gurbaaz is an innocent soul with a hopeful outlook on life. His journey in Naam Namak Nishan is about embracing his identity through self-love and humor," Danish shared. "As he matures, he gains a better understanding of himself and the world around him, learning valuable lessons about life along the way."
Naam Namak Nishan is set against the inspiring backdrop of the Officers Training Academy (OTA) in Chennai, chronicling the lives of young cadets from various corners of the country. The series serves as a tribute to the courage, honor, and dedication of the Indian Armed Forces, showcasing how these cadets overcome societal divides of race, class, caste, and creed, all with the shared goal of serving the motherland.
Produced by Juggernaut Studios, the show also features notable performances by Varun Sood, Helly Shah, and Roshni Walia, who play pivotal roles alongside Danish Sood.
Earlier, actor Varun Sood shed light on his own character in Naam Namak Nishan. He portrays a young man with a lifelong aspiration to join the military, shaped by a disciplined upbringing in a strict family environment.
"My character, Yuvraj, has a rigid personality and a strong sense of self-righteousness," Varun explained. "He struggles to understand others' opinions, considering himself to be the only one who's right. However, his perspective gradually shifts after joining the OTA, where he encounters people from diverse backgrounds."
