Sony SAB 's mythological saga, Shiv Parivar Ki - Ganesh Kartikeya, beautifully portrays divine relationships through emotional storytelling. For actor Avinesh Rekhi, who plays the powerful role of Lord Shiva, the experience has been deeply personal. Sharing the screen with young actors Niranya Samadhiya (Lord Ganesh) and Subhan Khan (Lord Kartikeya) often reminds Avinesh of the tender moments he spent with his son , making his journey on set even more emotionally enriching.

Subhan and Niranya's innocence, curiosity, and innate warmth repeatedly remind him of the small joys of parenthood. From playful banter between shots to moments of guidance and care during scenes, Avinesh finds himself naturally in the role of a protector and nurturer, just as he does as a father in real life. These moments add authenticity to his portrayal of Lord Shiva and further strengthen his on-screen bond with his divine sons.

Speaking about his experience, Avinesh Rekhi shares, “Playing Lord Shiva is spiritually enriching, but what really touches my heart is the time I spend with Subhan and Niranya on set. Their innocence, honesty, and way of looking at the world reminds me a lot of my son . Between shots, we laugh, chat, and share simple moments, and in those moments, it feels like I'm not acting in a show, but simply being a father. These fatherly feelings come very naturally when portraying Lord Shiva, because love, patience, and protection are emotions I live with my son every day.”

Watch Ganesh Karthikeya, every Monday to Saturday at 8 PM, only on Sony SAB.
