And then there’s Siddharth Jadhav’s Dagdu, Brij’s man Friday and fiercely loyal aide who, in an ideal world, should have been Brij’s business partner, but is sadly reduced to an assistant.
While Brij quite hypocritically positions himself as a man of the masses—at one point, he stands up for the rights of the mill workers—he conveniently refuses to fund Dagdu’s wedding, or, at the very least, support him in ways he is obligated to. It becomes clear that much of Brij’s positioning as a man of the masses is just hollow posturing.
And then, there is Jamie Lever. She plays Sulbha, the hotel telephone operator who takes the fall when Brij’s gambling syndicate comes under government scanner. Dagdu and Sulbha come across as the endearing couple all of us would root for.
