In his latest role as Nasir Khan, Iqbal has once again pushed his boundaries.

Iqbal, who rose to fame with his role of Angad in the show 'Kaisa Yeh Pyaar Hai', said, "A lot of things about my character Nasir really attracted me. He is the primary plot. I have never played such a deep character. " In the last 23-24 years of my career because it's a Pulp Fiction kind of story and because I've done a lot of TV, I wanted to give myself a challenge."

"I will play such a dark character and will make sure that I play it real and try not to make it filmy at all. With this character I wanted to prove myself. When you read the script, it is true to life. Big, big, and dangerous. I tried to keep the character very simple.

He further added, "I also want to thank my director Jatin. Even before I thought of it, he had already envisioned it and didn't want it to be too generic. This is a special gesture from my director and me. There was a very interesting input." I was really happy that he wanted the same."

'Commander Karan Saxena' centers around a RAW agent who uncovers a high-stakes mystery amidst political intrigue and betrayal.

The show stars Gurmeet Choudhary in the lead role and also stars Hruta Durgule.

Under the banner of Keylight Productions, it is produced by Rajeshwar Nair and Krishnan Iyer.

The show will stream on Disney+Hotstar from July 8.
