For Dubey, embodying these various characters was a deeply satisfying experience. "There is no bigger gift an actor can get than to step in a new pair of shoes, to embody a character and to do justice to it. In this show, I had 11 opportunities to do that," he said. Playing a con man and master of disguises required not just physical transformations, but also adopting different dialects and body languages to convincingly portray each character.

The inspiration for Dubey's remarkable transformations can be traced back to his admiration for Kamal Haasan’s performance in Indian. Haasan’s ability to transform into completely different personas using prosthetics left a lasting impression on Dubey. "I recall watching Kamal Haasan’s 1996 movie Indian, where seeing an individual transform into a completely different person using prosthetics got me very excited," Dubey shared.

When the opportunity arose to utilize prosthetics for his role in Matsya Kaand, Dubey couldn't have been happier. However, he confessed that the process was far from easy. Each transformation demanded extensive makeup sessions, patience, and a commitment to authenticity. Despite the challenges, Dubey embraced the opportunity with enthusiasm and dedication, delivering a performance that has captivated audiences.
