He also features in her team on the show.

Keen eye

Mahesh Bhatt handpicked child actor Jared Albert Savaille for his small-screen show, Dil Jaise Dhadke… Dhadakne Do. The six-year-old plays the key character of Yug. Says Bhatt, "I can smell a star from a mile. Jared is a rock star. Just watch him rap. The role fits him like a glove. His questions about his performance keep everybody on the set on their toes."

Bhatt has been a filmmaker for more than four decades and has powered his dramas with narratives that can jolt you with discomfort. Will we get to see the same magic with his TV show? Also, Bhatt has made a lot of stars in Bollywood, be it Bipasha Basu, Kangana Ranaut, John Abraham, Kumar Sanu or Arijit Singh, will Jared join the bandwagon?
