'Everyone likes Sid & Armaan, and that's a common factor' - Karan

Dr.Siddharth aka Karan Wahi of Star One fame Dill Mill Gayee in an exclusive chat with TellyBuzz…


Finally the heart throb of many, the young Karan Wahi of Star One's Dill Mill Gaye is with us amidst his hectic schedule to interact with his audience in the most modest and funny way possible.. 

Here is Dr. Sid aka Karan Wahi in a frank tete-a-tete with TellyBuzz..

How's Jennifer and your off screen chemistry?
She thinks I'm a clown, she finds me very funny. I come on the sets and irritate her a lot but those are our personal secrets (cunning smile).

How did you feel when Karan Singh Grover made a comeback?
I loved it and that comes from my heart. Many of them would feel it's a lie, but the very first day I got to know that he would be a part of the serial, I was very happy because he is a brilliant actor. We have lot of fun.

The DMG fans want the show to end with Armaan and Riddhima as husband and wife,  what's your take on it?
I have been telling this from day one that this love story has been portrayed for the past two years and people have loved it. So obviously when they are seeing Armaan and Riddhima in the same frame again, they want them to unite. I'm pretty cool with it but finally it's our creative teams' call and we are just actors doing our jobs.

How much can you relate to your character of Siddharth?
In the initial stages of Dill Mill Gaye, I used to relate a lot to the character of Sid because he was very kiddish, frank, his room was just like my own house full of posters on the wall, and personally I consume a lot of soft drinks and chocolates. Also I had a freedom to modify the dialogues as per my choice and I was also fascinated by the kind of clothes I was offered.

But I can't relate much to the present character of Sid because he's a married man and I'm not, he's irritated of something don't know what?  (smiles). He can't say I Love You to his wife while I would have confessed it a billion times even if she had a boy friend, and would never let her go to her boy friend. On the whole, it's an amazing feeling that I'm going to complete almost a year on the show.

There are so many movie adaptation tracks taking place in the serial, so what's your take on it?
I think we are just trying to entertain people and are working on a lighter note. We have left the sad track behind and are trying to get back the good old young scenes back to the show because majority of fan followers want to see us smile; so it's a small attempt from our side. 

Have you ever felt any kind of pressure coming from Armaan, Ridhima fans?
Earlier I did, because some where I felt I was being compared, and my character was being hated for no genuine fault of mine. With time I started understanding the ideology of Armaan fans, but I used to feel bad that even after putting so much of effort, people don't appreciate my work because they love some other character more.

But the fact remains that Armaan Riddhima fans have always wanted Karan Singh Grover to come back, and have refused to accept Sid Riddhima as a Jodi. So what's your comment on it?
We have received a lot of mixed responses; some like Sid Riddhima Jodi and others like Armaan and Riddhima. But I think everyone likes Sid and Armaan so that's the common factor.

Jennifer's Birthday is coming up, what are the plans?

Yes, her Birthday is on 30th of May and I don't know why she's working on her birthday; but we will surely have a blast and lots of fun on sets.

Any special gift you are planning to buy?
I'll have to see if I get time to buy something for her; I need to buy something for me too, as my birthday is also on the way(smiles).

How do you think the end of the show should be?
Actually I don't see the ending to be very near as of now. And it's a great show so till the time we can entertain people in our own ways it will go on.

How's the on and off screen chemistry with Karan Singh Grover?
I think audience is the best judge to talk about our on screen chemistry. And off screen we know each other for the past three years, but there is no Dostana in our real life. We have lot of fun on sets; he is a kick ass person these days; I'm taking body building tips from him.

So you are very fond of gym?
I was, but now I have become a lazy chap and I eat anything and everything, and don't care of calories in food. Now Karan Singh Grover is trying to train me in having healthy food and I personally admire his physique a lot, so I'm being trained by the best (smiles).

It's been said that you came to Mumbai to play cricket, how far is it true?
No I have read this at many places but it's not true. I have played cricket for Delhi state and then I left it in 2002-03 for some reasons. Cricket has always been my first love and I have always been more interested in dramatics and extracurricular activities. When I was studying, I  auditioned for Remix and came to Mumbai. So basically I had never thought that I would be an actor so if not for Remix I wouldn't have come to Mumbai in the first place.

During school days you were fond of playing drums? How often do you play now?
I was a drummer just in school that too because our drummer had run away and I used to play some other instrument; I never used to play drums but then with no option left, I had to and now I can play drums only on my head (laughs). And I'm so lazy that I have two guitars at my place that I had got 6 years back from Delhi. I think rats have also found their home in it but I haven't opened them yet.

You have also been part of a dance reality show and people regard you as a good dancer so any training as such?

No training as such; I have been a filmy boy since childhood and used to imitate their dancing styles in front of the mirror for hours together. It has come naturally to me from my mother who is a very good dancer and singer. Also I have the worst stage fright which no one knows, so I do such shows so that I can overcome that fear, there have been times when I at the back stage I have refrained from doing a performance (smiles).

You are also a great video game fanatic so what's the status now?

Yes, there was a time I used to play video games like mad; its like the way in which girls love make up, shopping guys like technology. I like playing them even today; earlier I used to spend 6 hours in the gaming zone of Inorbit Mall, though now I don't play so frequently.

What kind of character would you want to perform in the future?
I have never planned anything for my future, I just want to enjoy my work. Every morning I aspire to wake up and be excited to go to work and not sob about it.

Craziest fan mail you have received as of now?
I have received many of them but the most mesmerizing one was the one I got on my Birthday four years back. A girl had sent me a big, fat scrap book and it's still in my house. Apart from that, I even received a tea set with the girl's picture and even mine printed on it.

After the Dostana track I have been receiving lot of gifts from males too; the most striking one was when a guy sent me a pink t-shirt, it was cute but scary too (smiles). My father and cousins tease me but its fun. I love pink shirts but don't send too many (laughs).    
  
Message for the members at our website.
I just want to thank all the fans for their love and support. I have read your posts on India-Forums. I want to tell you all that DMG is just a show and I know it's a part of your life. One advice I give you as a friend is that 'Don't take it to your heart; we are just trying to do our job. Hate the characters but not the person in general'.
