In a quick conversation of how a journey of struggle unleashed a long awaited dream...
You have had a difficult and a really amusing journey. What has it been like?
Well, to begin with, I worked at a Quick Service Restaurant for a few months. I then switched on to giving tuitions to little kids after which I worked as a bus conductor post HSC. My little income was not really sufficient as such. It did help me in small ways, but yes I wanted to do it and it taught me a lot about life. I wouldn't really call it a difficult journey because I picked up tremendously from it. I got a chance to learn from everything that I have done, and I am still learning a lot from, everyone I work with and what I do. I was overjoyed when I got my first project. What I experienced at that moment cannot be expressed in words, but it was a perfect bliss. At that time, I did not understand much but now when I look back, I am just so glad for getting a chance at every point. You learn from the positives as well as the negatives. Learning from a negative situation is also very important.
It took a great deal of hardships and hindrances to get to this point. What inspired you to get into acting?
I had the dream to be an actor from a tender age of my life. It was God who showed me the way and helped me discover acting as a talent. I don't know how good I am at it, but I do know that I can uncover new things and keep trying till I succeed. I tried my best, God brought me to Mumbai and paved this path for me. I know I am a really strong human being. I will never give up, and will do so only when my heart stops beating. Just keep doing what you have to, don't worry about the results, is what I believe in.
Life taught you to be a teacher. Do you believe you could have been a great teacher?
I cannot say I would be a good teacher. My financial situation helped me learn from it. I taught kids a few things, and I myself learnt so much from it. I still have yet to know more. The process of learning never stops. It will keep going on. Not getting philosophical, but it's true. What we learn, we can teach others, but our learning process doesn't end there. The biggest teacher in life is life itself.
You have acted in serials more than movies. What according to you is your forte?
I have no forte as such. I just seize the role I get in hand and give the best performance possible.
Has dancing been a passion or did you master it later on?
Dancing, I haven't mastered but learnt it by listening to music and watching movies. My quest to do more pushed me to grasp so many different things.
One person who has been an inspiration.
Ekta Kapoor. The lady has a fiery talent creativity within her. She was the one who scrutinised my acting in a number of serials before casting me for 'Kalash...Ek Vishwas'. I am ever thankful to her for being a great role-model. One person from whom I can never stop learning. She believes in this; Entertainment, Entertainment and Entertainment. I follow this rule and get my acts straight.
What is the storyline of the serial?
Every love story has its own unique meaning and this is one of them. The romance genre will be the sparkle.
What is it that you enjoy doing in your spare time?
Apart from acting of course, I sing, watch films and what keeps me going is inspiring others. I love to write and blogging as social media gives me the platform to do so. Through Twitter and Instagram, I connect to people.
