Actor Harshvardhan Rane, who is currently winning praise for his latest release Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat, recently opened up about why he is drawn to portraying romantic characters on screen. In a candid conversation with Filmfare, the Sanam Teri Kasam actor traced his fascination with love stories back to his childhood observations of his father.

Why Harshvardhan Rane likes doing love story

Speaking about what shapes his affinity for romance, Harshvardhan shared, “I saw my father with 5-6 partners in different timelines. I guess I silently observed him longing for love, soul connection, and emotional bonds. I remember as a child I used to observe him without allowing him to get uncomfortable about me absorbing all that he felt and what he dealt with.”
