Just an ordinary guy trying to do extraordinary things. From a banker to model, to actor, to writer to director and still walking. A work in progress. He graduated from University of California, Los Angeles and became a successful banker at Wall Street but his Calling was Mumbai. He made his Television debut with Samander based on Navy officers and went on to do hit shows like Jassi jaisi koi nahin, Kumkum, Saakshi, Parichay etc for which he won awards like the Indian Telly Award for Best Actor, ITA Award for Best Actor – Drama (Popular) in 2012 and many more. He was the most loved contestant in BiggBoss season 4. His film debut was in China Gate and did movies like Lajja, Baghban, Vivah Fashion, I hate Love Story, Student Of the year 2. His web series Balaji’s Bewafaa sii Wafaa and Puncchbeat is a big hit. In 2018 he debuted as a writer/director with a psychological thriller called My Birthday Song. Mellow yet sharp, intensely passionate yet comfortably numb….all rolled into one. That’s Samir Soni.
