Danish Akhtar Saifi has been cast as Nandi, Dakssh Ajit Singh as Indra and Anjita Poonia as Indrani in the show, which will tell the story of the Baal Roop of Lord Shiva.

Veteran actor Praneet Bhat, who assays the role of Narad Muni, says that his character in the show will be an interesting take on the mythological figure.
Ahead of premiere of the show, Praneet Bhat, who has completed nearly two decades in the television industry, enacting several mythological characters over the years, said, "I am delighted to be a part Baal Shiv. We all have heard and seen several stories on Lord Shiva and his various avatars, but the story of his Baal Roop has never been told before on television. Similarly, the story of his bond with Mahasati Anusuya is untold, which makes this show unique and refreshingly distinct.
As for my role as Narad Muni, it will have a new and interesting take. He believes in supporting sanyaas over the grihast lifestyle and tries to influence the people at Kailash."
While Praneet plays Narad Muni, Ravi Khanvelkar, a veteran actor on Hindi and Marathi television, will play Acharya Dandpani.
Talking about his character, Ravi Khanvilkar said, "I am portraying Archarya Dandpani's character, who is the Varishth Archarya of the Gurukul run by Rishi Atri and Anusuya. He is an asur whose father was killed by Lord Shiva. To save himself from society, he disguises himself as an Acharya in the Gurukul. As he gets to know about Lord Shiva taking the Baal roop and attending Gurukul, the desire for vengeance ignites in him. Archarya Dandapani is an interesting as well as challenging character. I am excited for this show to go on-air, and I can guarantee that viewers will surely find the story refreshing different."
Veteran Gujarati theatre actress Pallavi Pradhan will be playing Devi Parvati's mother Maina Devi in Baal Shiv.
Pallavi Pradhan, who makes her debut in the mythological genre with Baal Shiv, said that playing a character in a mythological show is an excellent opportunity for her.
, "I am honoured to portray Maina Devi's role. She is the mother of Devi Parvati. Just like any other mother, she is very protective, caring and loving towards her daughter. She always wants the best for her. When the makers narrated the story, I loved the concept and agreed to take it up. Being a part of a mythological show is an excellent opportunity as I have never beenapartofsuch a show,.
The costumes, special effects, dialogues, and everything have something magical, and I am very excited about this journey. I am constantly working on my dialogue delivery and body gesture to get into the character's skin. I have played the role of a mother-in-law numerous times, from a comical mother-in-law to a negative one, but this time I will be playing a mother-in-law character in a completely different genre for Lord Shiva. I am sure my friends, family, and fans will enjoy watching this brand-new avatar,'she said.
Danish Akhtar Saifi, who assays the role of Nandi, said that it is a privilege for him to play the Vahan of Lord Shiva.
, "It feels great to be essaying a role which is so close to Lord Shiva. Much like my character of Nandi, I am a huge bhakt of Mahadev myself, and it is a privilege to be playing his Vahan and param bhakt. Nandi is also a dooth who passes on the messages of other Kailash gan to Lord Shiva and vice versa. He can transform into a bull anytime as per his wish depending on his mood.
Previously, I have been a part of many mythological shows, but Baal Shiv is a one of its kind show and being a part of it is like a golden opportunity for me,'he said.
Multitalented actor Dakssh Ajit Singh will essay Indra Dev's character.
Having done many television shows, films and albums across the Hindi and Punjabi sphere, Dakssh is very excited to be a part of &TV's Baal Shiv as Lord Indra.
"I am portraying the role of Indra Dev. He is the king of all devtas and resides in Indra lok. Indra Dev loves power and position. And to maintain it, he often resorts to political strategies. The character of Indra Dev is very interesting and, at the same time, very challenging, as he has to look and sound neutral. I love every bit of it, and it is indeed a whole new experience for me," Dakssh said.
Playing Indra Dev's wife Indrani is Anjita Poonia.
Speaking about the role, she said, "I am playing the role of Indrani, Indra Dev's wife and the queen of all the devtas. Indrani is known for her heavenly beauty and sensuality. The mythological genre has always fascinated me as an actor, and I always wanted to explore this genre. And here I am! Upon being offered the role, it was an instant yes. It is only recently we started shooting, and I am learning and discovering quite a lot of new things, making it interesting and exciting."
For the first time on Indian television, &TV show Baal Shiv will present an untold story of Lord Shiva's Baal roop .
Aptly positioned Mahadev Ki Undekhi Gatha, the show, produced by Zee Studios, will depict the mythical Katha of the mother and son, Mahasati Anusuya and Baal Shiv and their eternal bond.
Considered Infinite and the Unborn, Lord Shiva had taken many avatars, but he had never experienced childhood and mother's love. However, post his marriage with Devi Parvati, Mahadev takes the form of a child to fulfil Devi Parvati's wish and becomes the dutiful son of Mahasati Anusuya.
