Tanish Mahendru Reveals His Closest Confidant and Thoughts on Friendship
Tanish Mahendru, the talented actor currently captivating audiences as Sufiyan Siddique in the popular TV show Rabb Se Hai Dua produced by Prateek Sharma and Parth Shah’s Studio LSD, recently shared his thoughts on friendships, family and the contrasts between his on-screen character and real-life personality. Reflecting on the importance of having friends, Tanish said, "Well, I think it's good to have friends around yourself as it boosts your mood, but it's really difficult to find genuine people these days as everybody wants to extract something out of you." He emphasized the value of authenticity in relationships, expressing a sentiment many can relate to in today's fast-paced world. 
When it comes to his closest confidant, Tanish revealed, "My mother is my best friend. She is the one with whom I can share everything without doubting anything. She never judges me. I think it's really important to form a friendship with your parents." Discussing the qualities he values most in a friend, Tanish listed "loyalty and a good sense of humor" as essential traits. He also shared a strong belief about the nature of true friendships: "I strongly believe that if you have to make an effort to maintain a friendship, then that's not a real friendship. True friendships are effortless." 
On the set of "Rabb Se Hai Dua," Tanish has found a genuine friend in co-star Dheeraj Dhoopar. "I have a good bond with Dheeraj. We talk a lot on set and share fruitful conversations," he said, highlighting the positive impact of having supportive colleagues. Tanish also opened up about his character, Sufiyan Siddique, noting the stark contrast between the on-screen personality and his real self. "My character is a flamboyant personality. I don't possess that in real life. Sufiyan Siddique is a Gen Z who lives on social media. In real life, there's a strong contrast with my personality," he explained, offering a glimpse into the challenges and rewards of stepping into a character so different from himself. 
The actor candidly shared his personal growth journey, shaped by his experiences in Mumbai. "There's a lot that I have gone through in my life. I haven't really met genuine people in Mumbai, which indirectly has contributed a lot to my personal growth. I have learned that there's no one who really stands by you in tough times; it's only your parents who will be there."
