In a 2005 interview with Riya V Anandwala, throwing light on his educational and job phase in Bangalore, Samir Sharma had said, "After finishing my education in Delhi, I shifted to Bangalore. Before being captured on the small screen, I worked for an advertising agency, then an IT company and last was working for Radio City in Bangalore. Marketing was the common factor in all three." Revealing he had wanted to be an actor, Samir had said, "Well, I had given acting a thought while I was in college. I did theatre in Bangalore and that followed with many shows. Theatre continued for two to three years. My best friend is the writer of Dil Kya Chahta Hai, so I auditioned for it and bagged the role. I was really happy with a kind of break I got."

Sharing his personal take on acting, Samir Sharma had stated, "I love doing real characters. Even when I was doing theatre, I was always told that a 'guy next door' type of a character is my strength. And when I got Nitin's role, I always thought that comedy was my weakness. Initially I really had to work hard on my character, but then it followed." Revealing that he was looking forward to explore the thriller genre, Samir had said, "Well, as I have already experienced two genres, I would love to do a thriller show." (Also Read: Sushant SinghRajput's Sister, Shweta Shared A WhatsApp Chat With Him About Family From May 2020)
