Wrestler Sangram Singh has started shooting for the serial Shapath.

He is super-kicked about his acting career which seemed to be encountering hiccups in the initial stages.

Says Sangram, `I am supposed to do a Dara Singh bio-pic for the large screen. That was meant to be my acting debut. But the project was taking longer than I thought it would. In the meanwhile I got the chance to play myself , that is Sangram Singh in the series Shapath on Life OK.`

In the series Sangram would star as a Haryanvi super-cop.

Says Sangram, `I am playing a Haryanvi cop and being myself on the show. I will be making my debut on Fiction TV debut with this show. I realise after being part of reality shows that television is a very big medium to connect with audiences these days. Also post Bigg Boss Salman Khan Sir and Sunil Shetty ji had advised me to do a positive character on television if the opportunity arises. Well, I was not aware that I would be doing it so soon.`


Sangram is taking acting lessons to look convincing on screen even if he's playing himself. `I am working on my acting skills but playing myself helps. I have been a cop with Delhi Police during my wrestling training days. Apart from that the show's producer B.P.Singh ji and the channel head Ajit Thakur ji are like my big brothers and I respect them a lot. Whatever they will think for me will be for my good only.`

Sangram is enjoying the new phase in his career. `I have started shooting and it's a great feeling to do all stunts by myself from stopping the car to jumping on top of the roofs. It's a great adrenaline rush for me. I am thoroughly enjoying my acting debut on television.`
