<p>After taking a break from daily soaps for seven years, actor Rohit Roy is making a comeback to fiction with comic show Peterson Hill.<br /><br /></p>.<p>The light-hearted show, which airs on Sab TV, is inspired by a quaint little picturesque railway station in a small town of Shimla, Peterson Hill, and revolves around the lives of its simple people and the family of the station master, who manages that place. <br /><br />Roy, 46, who plays the friendly station master, said he was bowled over by the story when he heard the narration. <br /><br />“I was not getting anything interesting on fictional shows, so I shifted towards films and reality series. When I heard the narration for the role, I was completely bowled over by the script and my character. It's the role of a common man and I have never done such a character,” Roy told PTI.<br /><br />To play the fun loving and easy-going station master, the Viraasat star had to put on weight.<br /><br />“I didn’t do any special preparation to play the role. I only followed the instructions of my producer Ashwini Dheer. A month prior shooting the show, I ate a lot of pizza and had soft drinks to add some extra kilos of weight,” he said.<br /><br />The actor, who was last seen in a romantic role on the show Viraasat in 2007, said he played his new character Kishore Chadda with his heart.<br /><br />“I played a gangster, angry man and a romantic in my various projects but I never played such a touching character. His antics are funny but he is a genuine human being. I did the role with my heart,” he said.<br /><br />The show also features Sucheta Khanna, Mansi Srivastav and Navnindra Bhel, besides the Shootout at Lokhandwala star. <br /></p>
