TOI:I gel with kids as they love unconditionally: Eijaz Khan!!

Television's decade old household face Eijaz Khan currently busy with his project 'Meri Awaaz Hi Pehchaan Hai' shares his extreme fondness for kids, dogs and recalls an anecdote from his 'Kavyanjali' days.


Eijaz won many hearts after playing the role of Jassi in 'Tanu Weds Manu' and currently he is back on TV, opposite Amrita Rao. The actor talks about his love for kids, ' I was listening to this particular song in my vanity van & I continued humming the tune walking to the set. Happened to pass by these 3 kids who were playing by themselves. This cutie just stops what she is doing, stares at me and gurgles back my song. Maybe she wanted to sing with me. I went close to her, sat by her to sing and she just reached out her hand (I was actually singing the same lyrics 'close your eyes and just reach out your hand). I felt an instant connect. Well, we sang the rest of the song together with sunny smiles. Yup, I'm awesome with kids.

Eijaz talks about how happy he gets when he is around dogs and kids, 'During 'Kavyanjali' when we used to shoot with small babies and if they got cranky...I was the one responsible to calm them down. I think I get along very well with dogs and children because they are the two species who give unconditional love. Everyone else has conditions.'
