In an interview with The Wrap, Utkarsh Ambudkar said he really enjoys the show's upbeat vibe. "We're just here to give you a little boost [of] joy and get you through, there's no 'Squid Games' here. And I love that stuff too, but there's some people who have enough weight in their lives. They don't need any more darkness. That's where we come in, and it's also something we can all watch together," he said, noting that the show's family-friendly atmosphere is really special to him. And while families laugh in their living rooms, the whole cast and crew are having a blast on set. Ambudkar told Entertainment Tonight, "The hardest thing is to not laugh at these actors. I mean, they're so good ... They're just so talented and so fun and the energy that they have together is so loving and joyful..."
Ambudkar is no stranger to comedy, having played joyful roles on the big and small screens. Many might remember him for his role as Rishi Lahiri on "The Mindy Project." Others may recall his role as gamer Mouser in "Free Guy" or as Manish Kulkarni in Netflix's hit coming-of-age series "Never Have I Ever." No matter the role, he is always ready to bring the comedy, including that of the supernatural variety.
