The temperatures at the den of TellyChakkar were running high and we bet if we share the reason with you, your heart beats are going to go haywire.
Already excited, eh?
The reason is: one handsome lad from the telly industry paid a visit to TC den. This actor made his television debut in 1995 with the Zee TV show, Jahan Pyaar Mile. He gained popularity for his work in Baa Bahoo Aur Baby which aired on Star Plus. He was much loved for his acting in Lucky and Saraswatichandra. Still wondering who the actor is? Well, we are talking about Gautam Rode, who recently got hitched with the gorgeous Pankhuri Awasthy.\
What do you think of Gautam Rode?
In a tête-à-tête with us, at the den of TellyChakkar, Gautam revealed many facets of his life including his acting journey, fitness and of course, marriage. Excerpts:
Those challenging times:
Gautam has been part of many path breaking shows like Maha Kumbh: Ek Rahasaya, Ek Kahani, Suryaputra Karan. He began his Bollywood career in 2002 withAnnarth and later was seen in Aksar 2 opposite Zarine Khan. Today he has made a strong place for himself but it was not that easy when he started.
Not many would know that the actor who is successful in his career had entered the 'City of Dreams' to become an actor with just 4K in his pocket. And, the day he reached Mumbai, he wasn’t even sure about where he would be staying at night. “That’s how my struggle began,” shared the actor. But bravo Gautam, we are proud that such difficulties didn’t let you give away you dream to reach where you are today.
On fitness:
The actor, who has been a part of many episodic such as Rishtey, Apna Apna Style and Thriller at 10, is a fitness fanatic. On being a fitness enthusiast, he said, “I have always been a fitness freak. During my school and college days, I was one amongst those kids who was fit and keen to follow a routine.”
On ‘life after marriage’:
As we all know that he got married recently. So, has life changed after marriage? “We were already in a two year relationship before we got hitched hence nothing feels new apart from living together and washing utensils sometimes,” replied the actor with a chuckle.
Rightly said Gautam, there’s no harm in helping your lovable wife.
And readers, did you know that the hottie binge watches loads of sitcoms with his wife Pankhuri?
“It’s one of the best things we do apart from working on a script together,” said the actor.
It wouldn’t be exaggerating to say that Gautam is one of the most down to earth actors and with his thoughts he proves our claim truly.
On the work front, the actor is currently occupied with a project from the theater space and we are curious to know about it.
TellyChakkar wishes Gautam all the luck for his upcoming projects.
