Mumbai, Mar 27 (IANS): Veteran actor Arun Singh, who has featured in movies such as "Gadar - Ek Prem Kahani" and "Toilet - Ek Prem Katha", will be seen playing the role of Devidas on the show "Mere Sai".

His character is a guru who has visited different holy places and gained knowledge.

"I am enacting the role of Devidas, who is a knowledgeable person in terms of divinity and devotion. As per the story, he returns to Shirdi from the Himalayas after many years and realises that people are talking about Sai in the entire village," Arun said in a statement.
