Harshad Chopda (born 17 May 1983) is an Indian television actor known for his portrayal of Prem Juneja in Kis Desh Mein Hai Meraa Dil, Anurag Ganguly in Tere Liye and Captain Aditya Hooda in Bepannah.

Career

Chopda started his acting career in 2006 with Zee TV's Mamta where he played Karan Srivastav. From 2006 to 2007, he portrayed Cadet Ali Baig in SAB TV's Left Right Left. Next, he joined Sony TV's Amber Dhara as Akshat Mehra opposite Kashmira Irani.

From 2008 to 2010, he portrayed Prem Juneja in Star Plus's Kis Desh Mein Hai Meraa Dil opposite Additi Gupta. From 2010 to 2011, Chopda played Anurag Ganguly in Star Plus's Tere Liye opposite Anupriya Kapoor.

From 2011 to 2012, he played Mohan Gala in NDTV Imagine's Dharampatni opposite Aasiya Kazi. About his role he said: “Mohan is a commoner. He doesn't relate to many things in the world and only vaguely understands rituals and socialising.” In 2012, he portrayed Raghavendra Pratap Singh in Life OK's Dil Se Di Dua... Saubhagyavati Bhava? opposite Sriti Jha and Karanvir Bohra. From 2014 to 2015, he played Sahir Azeem Chaudhary in Sony TV's Humsafars opposite Shivya Pathania. When asked about his character, he explained: “Sahir is a very complex one. He has a lot of shades. He is more than what meets the eye. It is an interesting challenge for me to play such a character on-screen.”

In 2017, Chopda made his film debut as Rahul in 2016 The End co-starring Priya Banerjee, Divyendu Sharma and Kiku Sharda.

In 2018, he came back to television with Colors TV's Bepannah, portraying Captain Aditya Hooda opposite Jennifer Winget. Talking about his character, Chopda said: “Aditya is very emotional and intelligent. He has a mathematical approach towards life, and his vision is divided between black and white; he doesn't understand grey. Since he is a pilot, he works on things with full focus and is shattered when his perfect world comes crumbling down.” Bepannaah made a successful debut, entering the list of top five shows in its very first week. Times of India wrote “Harshad Chopda is a complete natural and plays his part effortlessly.” India Today stated “Harshad nails his character of Aditya with some black humour and hard-hitting one-liners.” Chopda won several awards for his performance including the Indian Television Academy Award for Best Actor Popular, Asian Viewers Television Award for Male Actor Of The Year and the Lions Gold Award for Best Actor Popular.

In 2020, he starred in Desi Music Factory's Juda Kar Diya opposite Erica Fernandes.
