I, me, myself
I am very normal, or rather I should say I am very boring, I don’t even remember when I last went clubbing. I am nothing like Angad, nothing at all.
My work and me
Nowadays, I shoot for 13 hours, which earlier use to be 24 hours a day. I am leaving for Dubai with the other main leads of the serial on 2 October for a few days as things are getting big and exciting in the serial.
Balaji and me
I am loyal to whatever I do and therefore I ought to be loyal to Balaji at the first place, Ekta was the only person who gave me a chance to show my capabilities, and I did it very well!(Laughs). And as it is I don’t have any time to do anything else. Later on I don't know what is going to happen.
My stint with movies
You appeared in two movies, any plans of doing more?
Funtush was ok but Bullet turned out to be a disaster. After Murder became a hit, quite a number of similar kind of films were offered to me, but I didn’t want to do any thing of that sort.I don’t see any difference between films and television, there is a huge fan following in films and the same is the case with television.
My pals on the show
Amit (Pritvi) is like a brother, I happen to finish most of his grub and he ends up with an empty stomach. With the rest, I am friendly, Sujata (his mother) is nice, and yes there are some new characters coming up, Rohit and Ali Hasan, even they are sweet. Of course, you can’t be best friends with everyone!
My love
I am going steady with a girl, and am quite serious too. But at present I cannot think of getting married for the next three years, as my profession and life demand that.
My parents
They are very proud of me, and extremely happy too. They feel on top of the world when they hear people whispering,”Dekho dekho, Angad key mummy papa Hain.” I would love to get them here, but they should agree to that.They have always stayed in Kashmir, in a cold place and they won't be able to stay here.
Mumbai blues
My hair has started greying and perhaps this is proof that I have really struggled a lot after coming to Mumbai.
Movies and music
There was a time when I used to watch each and every movie, and now I don’t even know about the new releases. And about music, I do possess an ipod and I keep asking my cousin to download some songs for me.
My message to my fans
I love you all and thanks for all the support you’ve given me. It’s been just seven months and the serial is doing amazingly great, thanks to you all!
