The one thing that I consider a big achievement and once-in-a-life-time-thing is meeting Yash Chopraji. ​When he came in front of me I was dumbstruck. I couldn’t believe I was meeting ‘The Yash Chopra’. He is like God for actors like me. Here I was this young guy from Lucknow and meeting a legend like Yashji, one of those people we only saw on TV or heard off, and here he was right in front of me and talking to me! That’s one thing I will never forget in my life.”

I saw a lot of fantasy shows, especially noticing the body language and the tone of negative characters. I am known for my wit and smile on the set, which I completely stopped as I wanted to be in the character all the time. I stopped talking to people and would only step out of my room when I was called for the shot. It might sound a little weird, but I actually got a photoshoot done, where I am all serious and sports a beard to get that angry look on my face.”
