From Doctor to Actor: The Inspiring Journey of Aman Sehgal – India’s Rising Face in Global Cinema

When passion calls, logic takes a backseat. That’s exactly what happened in the life of Indian actor Aman Sehgal — a man who chose to rewrite his destiny, transforming from a doctor to a teacher and ultimately discovering his true identity as an actor.

Today, after more than a decade in the entertainment industry, Aman stands as one of the most hardworking and versatile performers in Indian television and digital cinema. And now, his journey has gone global — with his latest international film project in Kazakhstan, marking a new milestone for Indian talent abroad.

The Unlikely Beginning
Aman Sehgal’s story began far from the glitz of the camera. Initially trained as a doctor, his early life was driven by academics, empathy, and a commitment to serve people. Yet, beneath the surface, he felt an undeniable pull toward emotions, storytelling, and performance.

“I always felt drawn to emotions, stories, and human behavior. The world of cinema fascinated me,” Aman recalls. “I realized healing people could also be done emotionally — through art, through storytelling.”

This realization changed everything. It pushed him to step beyond the safety of a medical career and chase the unpredictable, yet deeply fulfilling, world of acting.

From Teaching to Performing
Before stepping into full-time acting, Aman worked as a teacher — a phase that shaped his confidence, patience, and understanding of human psychology. Those very skills became the foundation of his on-screen authenticity.

“Every chapter of life adds something valuable,” he shares. “Teaching taught me communication and empathy — both essential for any actor.”

The Birth of an Actor
In 2013, Aman Sehgal officially began his acting journey, training rigorously at the renowned Barry John Acting Studio — one of India’s most respected institutions for professional film and television acting.

Since then, he has committed himself fully to the craft, taking on a wide range of projects across television, OTT platforms, short films, and brand campaigns. His dedication and professionalism have earned him a strong reputation in both Mumbai and Delhi acting circles.

A Decade of Performances and Perseverance
Over the last 10 years, Aman has delivered consistent performances across multiple mediums — appearing in 12 television serials, 6 feature films and web series, 50+ short films, and over 50 national TV commercials and digital ads.

His notable TV appearances include:
– Zindagi Ki Mehak (Zee TV)
– Crime Patrol (Sony)
– Mishri, Dabangi, Mangal Lakshmi, and Doree Season 2 (Colors TV)
– Bhagyalakshmi (Zee TV)
– Cyber Crime Ki Duniya (DD National)
– Nimbarkacharya Mytho (Nimbark TV)

On OTT, he has worked in Murder Mubarak and Delhi Crime Season 2 (Netflix), Raaz (MX Player), Checkmate (Hungama OTT), Tu Raja Main Sikander (Vaha Flix), and SSC and TVF web series on YouTube.

He will soon be seen in “Raktbeej” (Directed by Singh Akaash, releasing 2025) and “Children of Freedom” (Directed by Sudhir Mishra, releasing 2026) — two major feature films that promise to highlight his depth as a performer.

Crossing Borders – The Kazakhstan International Film Project
The year 2025 marks a new beginning for Aman Sehgal as he steps into his first international film project in Kazakhstan — a cross-cultural collaboration uniting Indian and Kazakh film industries.

“It’s a proud moment for me and for every Indian actor working to make a mark globally,” he says. “The Kazakh film industry is dynamic and evolving, and being part of this project has been a truly enriching experience.”

This project not only adds an international credit to his growing portfolio but also symbolizes the increasing global reach of Indian actors.

The Face of Leading Brands
Aman’s screen presence and versatility have also made him a familiar face in advertising and digital media. He has appeared in campaigns for Air India, Karnataka Bank, Cipla, Google Pay, DLF Aerocity, Hero Motors, JSW Paints, Meesho, Mastercard, Aditya Birla Group, Mankind Pharma, and many others — including major government and social awareness campaigns like the G20 Summit and ONDC.

His balance of subtle performance and strong camera appeal makes him a favorite among production houses and creative agencies.

Currently dividing his time between Mumbai and Delhi, Aman stands 5’10” tall and fits perfectly into the 25–40 age bracket — ideal for a wide range of lead and character roles. Known for his punctuality and discipline, he proudly describes himself as a “200% sincere, 500% dedicated, and 1000% professional actor — with zero tantrums.”

He continues to explore roles that challenge him artistically while staying committed to constant growth.
