Karan Tacker made his digital debut with Neeraj Pandey”s web series titled ‘Special OPS’. The series received a great response from the critics as well as the audience. Now, the Ek Hazaron Mein Meri Behna Hai actor has opened about his experience of working with Neeraj. Karan says he learnt three very important lessons from Pandey.
“I would say dedication, discipline and clarity are the three things I have learnt from Neeraj sir. He really knows what he wants as a storyteller, what he wants from his actors, and how he will use it in the post-production. The clarity he has in his mind is really worth learning from! After shoot, when we would rest, he would sit with the production guys to discuss the next days’ shoot. I think during production, he slept for about four to five hours because he was working constantly,” Karan told IANS.
“Also, he is an emotionally sensitive person with a sense of humour. One should really work closely to understand him! It’s fun!” added the actor.

“Special OPs” is a spy-thriller streaming on Hotstar, and the show also features Kay Kay Menon, Meher Vij, Sana Khan, Saiyami Kher, Vinay Pathak and Vipul Gupta. The story of the show is set against the backdrop of Parliament attack in Delhi that took place in 2001.
Giving an insight into his role, Karan Tacker said: “My character Farooq Ali is a RAW agent recruited by Himmat Singh (played by Kay Kay Menon). He is always on field with clarity on what he wants, and has his strategy. The character is very well written — in fact, not just mine but of all of us. Neeraj sir is such a great scriptwriter. We all see the kind of vision he has, in all his films. But as an actor, it is great how one can deliver so much just by following the script when it is well written.”
