Parmish Verma on his role as Nimma

According to Verma, Kanneda reflects the aspirations, hardships, and hopes of many Indians residing overseas. Nimma's story resonates deeply with him, as he has also encountered the alienation that arises from feeling like an outsider at times. On the other hand, the character lives in a much more brutal world where power and survival are both extremely costly. For Verma, playing him was more than simply a part; it was a chance to give life to a character he had a passion for. His character was his lifeblood; in fact, the actor hasn't taken on any acting roles since Kanneda. He consistently dedicates himself fully to his roles and eagerly anticipates the release of the show on JioHotstar, where viewers can immerse themselves in the intense drama, deep emotions, and high stakes.

Kanneda is a powerful and introspective tale about ambition and its repercussions, says Jasmine Bajwa. The character Harleen is Nimma's cheerleader and romantic interest until his quest takes a dark turn. Despite her seemingly straightforward persona, her character faces her fair share of challenges. The pleasure of working with such a gifted ensemble was truly remarkable. Viewers will be captivated by the exhilarating journey.

Mohammed Zeeshan Ayyub on his role

The universe of Kanneda is brutal, and his character is pivotal to Nimma's journey, remarks Mohammed Zeeshan Ayyub. An overwhelming amount of feeling and intensity permeates the narrative. It was a pleasure collaborating with Parmish and the rest of the crew; he has no doubt that the viewers will enjoy the intricate web of tension and drama that they have created. Thanks to JioHotstar and all the other amazing artists, they were able to make this story a reality.

Kanneda is a story about how immigration, politics, crime, and music all come together, as Ranvir Shorey puts it. The script delves into current affairs issues, and his character is important to the plot. The actor added that viewers won't believe the intensity and tension that this show delivers, and the trailer barely gives them a taste.
