Hunar Hali Gandhi on teaching Sanskrit to her young co-star Aan Tiwari on the sets of Veer Hanuman; says 'It isn't an easy language, but he's always eager to learn'
Veer Hanuman continues to capture hearts with its divine storytelling and impactful performances. While the epic unfolds powerfully on-screen, it's the off-screen camaraderie that’s equally heartwarming. Actress Hunar Hali Gandhi , who recently joined the mythological series as Kaikeyi, has embraced a unique off-screen role — mentoring her young co-star Aan Tiwari , who plays the young Lord Hanuman , in Sanskrit .
Known for her affinity for Sanskrit, Hunar helps Aan with challenging pronunciations and explains the deeper meanings of verses. She ensures he not only delivers his dialogues fluently but also comprehends the spiritual and emotional depth of his character. Their learning moments between takes are a mix of fun, discovery, and dedication.
Speaking about their bond, Hunar shares, “I’ve always loved Sanskrit, and although it isn’t an easy language, especially for someone of Aan’s age, what’s encouraging is he’s always eager to learn. Aan is an incredibly sincere and curious child.”
She adds, “Watching him put in so much effort makes me want to pitch in and help him. We’ve developed a sweet little routine where I quiz him on meanings or help break down lines — it’s turned into something we both look forward to.”
For Hunar, the show has become even more special through this newfound connection. “Being part of Veer Hanuman is in itself a divine experience, but being able to form a bond with Aan offscreen while tutoring him or singing with him in between shots has made it even more fulfilling.”
This behind-the-scenes bond not only reflects the collaborative spirit on set but also highlights how the show nurtures both performance and personal growth.
