Parikshit Sahni - A gizmo freak

Veteran TV actor Parikshit Sahni proves that age is no bar when it comes to keeping pace with the latest technology. Though nearing 70, he stays abreast of the latest applications and even doles out tips to others.

According to the sources, the 69-year-old, who plays the role of Gyaneshwar in Zee TV's show "Housewife Hai...Sab Jaanti Hai", can be found busy on one of his many hand-held devices - be it his iPad, iPhone or iPad Mini - during breaks between the shots.

"Be it games or the latest app (application) to hit the app market, Parikshit ji is the one person who would have tried and tested it out within the first few days of their launch," Aniruddh Dave, who plays the male lead in the show, said in a statement.

"In fact, I often go to him for advice on the best apps to use for whatever I need. Not only does Parikshitji help me out with getting the best apps available but he also shows me ways in which to make the best use of the apps," he added.
