Apurva said, “My character will bring some interesting twists and turns in the life of Anupamaa and the Shah parivaar. I decided to accept this role, because it is different in many ways. My character has a lot of layers. There are many aspects and many shades to his personality which will come out as the show progresses. With this show, I will be back on TV after a gap of three years. When Anupamaa was offered to me, it was too good an opportunity to refuse because obviously Rajan Shahi is one of the top producers in the industry, so there was really no reason to say a no."

Apurva Agnihotri is known for his role as Rajiv in the film Pardes (1997) co-starring Shahrukh Khan and directed by Subhash Ghai. He was also seen as Armaan Suri in the television show Jassi Jaissi Koi Nahin. He participated in Bigg Boss 7 in 2013 with his wife Shilpa Saklani. He went on to play roles in shows like Pyaar Ka Dard Hai Meetha Meetha Pyaara Pyaara, Ajeeb Dastaan Hai Yeh and Saubhagyalaxmi.
