Actors Chandan Roy & Anushka Kaushik start filming a love story tackling caste in Varanasi. Get plot details and cast insights here.

"We are not here to change society, but just make a small underlining about the factors of society. - Chandan Roy"

Varanasi, February 14

The cast and crew of the upcoming web series titled 'Kabir Banaam Tulsi', featuring actors like Chandan Roy, Anushka Kaushik, and Rajesh Jais, arrived in Varanasi on Saturday.

The team is set to begin shooting across various locations in the city, capturing scenes in the streets and ghats over the next few weeks.

Speaking to ANI, actor Chandan Roy offered a sneak peek into the narrative and shared, "This is a love story following a boy who studies in BHU and falls in love with a girl over there. They get married, only to find their family opposing as they belong to different castes."

"But just as the title suggests, 'Kabir Banaam Tulsi', the story follows the characters and their different backgrounds. We are not here to change society, but just make a small underlining about the factors of society. We want to deliver entertainment," he added.

Actress Anushka Kaushik, who will be seen as the female lead as Tulsi opposite Chandan Roy, spoke about her character.

"I am playing the character of Tulsi. The whole story is focused on Tulsi. It is also very rare to find a female-driven character. This is the story of those girls who represent 70-80 per cent of India," she said.

Veteran actor Rajesh Jais, who is also set to play a key role in the show, suggested how 'Kabir Banaam Tulsi' will follow the societal practices, day-to-day challenges faced in the remote places of the country, and other factors.

As the team prepares to commence filming, further details of the show's plotline are yet to be announced.

Finally a female-driven story set in our heartland! Anushka said it represents 70-80% of Indian girls. That's powerful. Looking forward to seeing Tulsi's character unfold on the ghats of Kashi.

The title is intriguing - Kabir vs Tulsi. Sounds like a clash of ideologies or backgrounds. Hope they don't oversimplify a complex issue. Rajesh Jais' involvement gives me confidence though. Wishing the team the best for the shoot!

As someone who studied abroad, I find these authentic Indian stories fascinating. The setting in Varanasi and BHU will be visually stunning. Curious to see how they balance "entertainment" with social commentary.

Respectfully, I'm a bit tired of the "BHU love story facing caste opposition" plot. It's a real issue, yes, but we've seen it before. I hope the "Kabir Banaam Tulsi" angle brings a fresh philosophical perspective. Prove me wrong, team!

Shooting in Varanasi is perfect for this theme. The city itself is a character of traditions and change. Hope they capture the real essence, not just the tourist spots. All the best to the cast and crew! 🪔
