Aftab Shivdasani is one of the most popular actors in Indian cinema. There was a time when he got many good roles in big-budget movies. However, with the emergence of so many young stars in Bollywood, he is one of the few talented stars, who got overshadowed by time. However, the best thing about time is that no matter how bad it is right now, it will change. This is exactly what happened in Aftab Shivdasani's acting career.
At the age of 45, when most of the actors of his time had disappeared, Aftad Shivadasani made a stellar comeback with the web series, Poison 2. He played the character of 'Aditya Singh Rathore.'

The actor joined the likes of Kichcha Sudeep, Madonna Sebastian, Shraddha Das, Nawab Shah, Abhirami, and many renowned stars of the South Indian film industry.
