Actor Sourabh Raaj Jain says doing a TV show is like having a relationship with someone.
His show "Mahakali - Anth Hi Aarambh Hai" is coming to an end.
"Doing a TV show is like having a relationship. Once it's over for whatever reason, it affects you. A part of you is gone forever. One can even have a rebound and that is scary," Sourabh said in a statement.
"It is good to take some time off, let go of the past attachments, feelings and then move on."
He said the challenge as an actor is to make a character "big, real and loved".
"Once the journey of the show ends, one must then break the mould and once again transform into a completely new character. We actors are 'transformers'. We must keep reinventing ourselves, shaping ourselves and moulding ourselves according to the need of the hour," said the actor, known for featuring in mythological shows.

He feels an actor has to be a complete package.
"So there's always so much to work on -- acting, anchoring, dancing, fitness, action, etc," he said.
"They say mythological shows are challenging, I have done a few. So now I'm looking for a greater challenge to break the earlier mould and to surprise my audience with a new transformation," said the "Devon Ke Dev...Mahadev" actor.
On the kind of roles that would excite him, he said: "Action-packed thriller roles with the perfect angle of an intense love story."
