Sheezan Khan is in judicial custody for abatement of suicide of co-star and ex-girlfriend Tunisha Sharma.
Nigam says he feels responsible for the role he is playing as he made a decision to be part of the show overnight.
“Everyone has been supportive, warm and understanding. They didn’t make me feel like a newcomer.” he said.
About comparisons being made with Sheezan, Nigam said, “The audience finds it difficult to warm up to a new face. However, if you are diligent and portray the character with conviction, you will strike a chord with the viewer.”
Nigam has worked with Tunisha in Hero – Gayab Mode On and later, in a music video.
