Actor cum anchor Raman Handa has been reading the destinies of many celebrities for many years as he knows the nuances of astrology.

This time, Raman is gearing to begin a new chapter of his life by making a special appearance in ZEE TV’s ‘Hello Pratibha’.

Best remembered for getting famous via ‘Rakhi Ka Swayamvar’, Raman Handa hopes to do well in his new TV stint. "I am playing a role of an emcee in the show ‘Hello Pratibha’. There is a reunion party happening after 20 years in the show. As anchoring is my forte that was the first reason to pick up this job. Though once I thought that it is a cameo but in fraction of second it was clear in my mind that work is never small or big. And I love to anchor shows. My last stint on TV was ‘India Ka Fashion Star’ on Zoom channel.”

Raman also wishes to pick up a negative role in a daily soap and would like to do a reality show like ‘Bigg Boss’ ‘Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa’… etc. " I would like to enact a negative role in some daily soap. I would like to participate in some realities shows like Bigg Boss, Jhalak & Khatron Ke Khiladi.I would like to anchor shows like DID and Gumrah as well. I'm hoping for the best and praying that this come back will last forever and I will continue working till my last breath. I have looks that suit negative roles. In fact I was a little apprehensive yesterday when I got the call from ‘Shakuntalam’ as few hours ago I got my hair chopped to a very short length. But the production showed confidence in my work over the looks and casted me only for this role. It was an amazing experience to face the camera after 4 years and trust me I was super excited and full of confidence when I first heard the word - Action.”

He further adds, "I am managing acting and astrology. I can work from anywhere and while shooting as well. I was guiding my clients over the phone from the set only.”
