Nitin Ganatra, best known for his role as Masood Ahmed in EastEnders, has undergone a career swap in the years since his exit from the soap. Nitin's character Masood was at the centre of a number of the soap's dramatic storylines, including relationships with Ian Beale's ex-wife Jane and his mum Kathy, but departed the show back in 2019, with the character emigrating to Australia. Since then, the actor, 56, has appeared in a number of TV shows, including an episode of Netflix's Wednesday, and Alan Carr's semi-autobiographical sitcom Changing Ends.
Alongside these TV appearances, Nitin has been focusing on his career as a painter and has a number of prints available for sale on his website, including two EastEnders-themed artworks. Nitin recently shared some videos and photos of his art on Instagram, where he wrote: "Bleary eyed Sunday morning! I wanted to share this with you all!!! "We have a new size of print of my art work! AND it's got this beautiful sheen to it that really makes the colours pop!! I got quite emotional seeing how this boys journey has taken a new life in the prints. "My artwork is an expression of something that sits deep inside wanting and waiting to be heard.
To find a voice.
To live in the world.
Safely." He continued: "The response. Your response has been incredible and moving for me for so many reasons that I can't put in a post. I am stunned at how many of you look deeply into the paintings and connect with them on an emotional level.
